...anything that gets posted on the new forum, regardless of whether it's
posted directly or through a link to an outside server, automatically
has the non-exclusive copyright assigned to Adobe, and since there is
no place to effectively cross that out, you either participate knowing
that you're being taken advantage of or you move on to a less oppressive
regime.
I fully agree with RamοΏ½n ("Only effective for intimidating the gullible"). Just because an Adobe writes something by no means makes it legally enforceable. The idea that Adobe could appropriate someone's image just because it was linked to on a public Adobe forum is preposterous.
Abobe legal knows that, and I doubt if Adobe would be dumb enough to intentionally steal an image for any substantive usage. Abobe legal is just adding ammunition for their deep legal team to bury potential litigants with. A disgusting practice, but it is what the Adobes of the world do; even blanks ammunition can bury those with less deep legal resources.
