Your interpretation:
All content created on ER becomes property and attributable to ER LBG.
is just wrong. If people, by posting, agree to grant a license, it means they are the owners of the licensed content. Right? And the license is CC-BY, which means the content can be reused, but it has to be attributed to the right holder. This is the function of usernames and avatars next to posts and comments. So, the license says all content created on ER is property of the creator, and attributable to her.
Also:
- I feel that day-by-day stuff is not worthy of discussion. Others will make their own choice as to use their time.
- No, you can't edit the legals page yourself. And the reason is, you have no legal or financial responsibility for what is on these pages. But it comes to much the same thing: start a wiki with the privacy/data retention policy that you think it is appropriate. Once it is there, we will go through it. Ok?
- Notice that I never use adjectives like "farcical" (source) or "untrustworthy" on you or your work, though I do have my own reservations. You (and readers of this) can draw your own conclusions.
