- 21Sorry, but I can't get into more details regarding how and why this happened, other than to say that the change went under the radar internally for quite a while and that we announced it as soon as the change was brought to the attention of the Community team. We now have processes in place regarding ToS changes that should help to prevent this from happening in the future (though of course, no process is perfect, and mistakes do happen).Yaakov Ellis– Yaakov Ellis StaffMod2020-05-12 09:00:53 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 9:00
- 2As for your 'questions raised at the time of the relicensing', that particular one is answered on another post a few days later, perhaps duplicating those posts makes sense.Tinkeringbell– Tinkeringbell Mod2020-05-12 09:02:54 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 9:02
- 8We noticed the same day the TOS changes were announced. I trust now though that SE's changes in regards to MSE will hopefully mean that our posts here have a higher chance of being seen and relayed to the relevant company staff. 😊curiousdannii– curiousdannii2020-05-12 09:03:35 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 9:03
- 3@Tinkeringbell I think 22 is more than "a few", and much discussion was had there about how that post answers nothing.OrangeDog– OrangeDog2020-05-12 14:49:52 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 14:49
- 1@OrangeDog it answers the question 'were lawyers involved' (yes), and you might need to recalibrate your calculator. Question linked by Sonic is asked Sep 22 '19, answer I linked was written Sep 27 '19. I think that's 5 days, which is less than 6-8 so 'a few' seems very well applicable.Tinkeringbell– Tinkeringbell Mod2020-05-12 15:05:49 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 15:05
- 5@Tinkeringbell I was counting from "at the time of re-licensing". The separate question posts were only made after the initial ones were ignored. It also doesn't answer that question. It states that lawyers are involved now, but not whether they were consulted before the ToS change.OrangeDog– OrangeDog2020-05-12 15:14:55 +00:00Commented May 12, 2020 at 15:14

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
