"patent and/or proprietary intellectual property rights" in Coursera's TOCs

1 pointsby buff-aabout 13 years ago
I did the Stanford ml-class. Its TOCs said:<p><i>In consideration for your agreement to the terms and conditions contained here, Stanford grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Sites.</i> [1]<p>The new TOCs for model thinking say:<p><i>All content or other materials available on the Sites, including but not limited to code, images, text, layouts, arrangements, displays, illustrations, audio and video clips, HTML files and other content are the property of Dkandu and/or its affiliates or licensors and are protected by copyright, patent and/or other proprietary intellectual property rights under the United States and foreign laws. In consideration for your agreement to the terms and conditions contained here, Dkandu grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Sites.</i> [2]<p>I'm happy to respect copyright. I'm not happy being taught patented methods. Or am I reading it wrong?<p>[1] http://www.ml-class.org/course/auth/tos<p>[2] https://authentication.coursera.org/auth/auth/normal/tos.php
