I especially give them the right to “publicly perform” something I say when I am discussing inserting things, especially when it refers to places that don’t receive a lot of solar radiation. They are very welcome to perform such things in public.

Google is already negotiating the rights with HBO and Netflix for a
reality TV style show based on the FRIAM archives... While FRIAM archives are not hosted directly on Google, enough members (even one is enough) with GMail accounts route the FRIAM digest through Google, thereby signing away all of our rights. I hear that Donald Sutherland has been approached to play Nick Thompson. Any speculations about the remaining caste of characters? We understand that Sally Field, Nicholas Cage and John Malkovich are all reading the archives now. I'm just hoping to get to stunt double for John Malkovitch playing my role... he'll have to wear a body suit of course. > I especially give them the right to “publicly perform” something I say when I am discussing inserting things, especially when it refers to places that don’t receive a lot of solar radiation.

When is Pamela going to write a novel about the day that the Google Board of
Directors decides that there is more money to be made in enforcing the user contracts as written, rather than actually performing services. I can see the letter now: "Dear Gary Schiltz, We were in the process of looking for a buyer of the publication rights of your love letters to that slinky nymph down the street, and we wondered if, by any chance, you would like to buy back the right you granted to us when you signed up for gmail?" At an average of a thousand dollars per user, a billion users, even Google might take notice of that revenue stream. Nick Nicholas S.

You retain the rights because you give Google a nonexclusive license - see this apropos thread about the recent update to Reddit's <a href="http://TermsOfService, EndUserLicens/ceAgreement">TOS/EULA. Still does not mean they cannot potentially eat your lunch, as in RSR.
