Outrage Over New Terms of Use at Findaway Voices Forces Change - Writer Beware(R)

Panzer says, You need to be very careful now.
You need to be very careful now.
Today's trip into the Catosphere took Panzer to the Writer Beware (R) site. With hardly any digging at all in the posts there our diligent kitty boy found one about Findaway Voices and owner Spotify. This is a follow-up post about an earlier problem with writers/creators losing right to stop AI from "learning" their works through Findaway Voices' Terms of Use.
 
In her post Victoria Strauss does a deep dive into the Findaway Voices' Terms of Use (TOU). She explains different sections of TOU which have been changed and why. There are also details about areas which are still a little confusing and could be better clarified. The post includes links to other earlier posts and to information about Findaway Voices.

Panzer says, "This shows two things: 1) If enough people complain and make enough noise, you can get things changed, and, 2) Always read the Terms of Use."

Note: This is a long post. You'll need to decide what to bring to snack on while you read.
