I have no personal interest in this case, not being a vendor, not using any links in signature or elsewhere, so I could just keep quiet and turn away.

But honestly spoken, the critics are right. The paragraph in the current ToS can only be understood to be applicable to Galleries, not to forum posts or other places. If it was not meant this way, then the ToS is a mess here.

As I said, personally I don't care about this specific issue myself. But I do care about people who cannot find the powers to say 'oops, sorry, we reallize the ToS is a bit messed up in this context, we are going to sort it out and update the ToS, because this is how we want it to be handled.' In my 58 years of lifespan I have always deeply respected people who can admit their mistakes, be it in military, at university, as commercial pilot in aviation, and other environments I have experienced. But I never trusted anybody who stubbornly insists on something wrong which is so obvious.
