I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer.
The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software.
This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this .
You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well.
Going to have to learn some new tools.

A shame Dr Cass and her team evidently don’t subscribe to this view.
Replying to @wellcometrust
Lived experience makes research more inclusive and reflective. Those benefits can then extend to the interventions, policies and advocacy that follow.
That’s why involving lived experience in research is more than good practice – it’s essential.

Following a decade as artistic director at Royal & Derngate, @James_Dacre has launched his new production co – Living Productions (Theatre, Music & Arts) – which will ‘champion exceptional writers, composers, actors & creatives by developing & producing their work’ @LivingProds.
It’s time the govt in London wakes up to modern opinion on this and shuts this monstrous practice down across the UK.
