Seen what it says about lists like this?
"Each member or poster to the forum explicitly agrees to the "Concept Use" statement as it applies to their postings."
Explicitly. Not implicitly. Even if you never post, even if you're just a member. Not that I have any idea how that can be implemented for an existing membership of this size in any reasonable manner. As I said in another message, I do *not* envy the moderators of any of the big lists trying to sort that lot out.
"The Online Source includes the Trademark, "Fan Material," and "Concept Use" statements (see Section 5) on the source's main page, on any "sign up" page, and appended as a post to each message or digest."
The size of the average post just doubled. People who forget to trim footers in replies will be even more reviled by those on Digest mode, and anyone on slow modems (mobile users?) will hate it.
Yes, all of this will affect every member of this list, unfortunately.
