Microsoft Mail / Account Terms of Use

[dueda]

Just received a new Terms of Use update notice, and it says:

Published July 1st, 2019. Valid on August 30th, 2019.

3. Code of conduct.

b. Imposition. If you break these Terms, we can, solely up to you, stop providing you services or terminate your account.

So that's a bad translation here or others got it too? And if I got it right, I can do illegal actions, harassment, piracy, etc and still decide to keep using MS?
Maybe MS should spend more with local lawyer offices. In the mean time, any suggestions on how to completely ***** MS while it's legal?

Thanks LZA, but that's not what I mean... Once a tech police officer here killed three MS servers with one single email. Guess it had something to do with Powershell and Outlook. He said he tried to warn MS about their "blatant lack of security" and was ignored, so...

Wow, people actually read the fine print.

That's *****ing news to me.

Oh... So it's an update to terms for security issues? I obviously didn't read it... hold on...

  • i. Don’t do anything illegal.
    
  • ii. Don’t engage in any activity that exploits, harms, or threatens to harm *****ren.
    
  • iii. Don’t send spam. Spam is unwanted or unsolicited bulk email, postings, contact requests, SMS (text messages), or instant messages.

When investigating alleged violations of these Terms, Microsoft reserves the right to review Your Content in order to resolve the issue. However, we cannot monitor the entire Services and make no attempt to do so.
  

Unless I'm missing something, these seem like standard rules of use... NOthing to do with security gaps... The only one that strikes me as possibly concerning is this one:

vii. Don’t engage in activity that is harmful to you, the Services or others (e.g., transmitting viruses, stalking, posting terrorist or violent extremist content, communicating hate speech, or advocating violence against others).


On the surface, it sounds like a sound rule, but in this changing world, and laws are turning more subjective than objective as the world is turning into a sensitive butthurtville, feeling become facts so this can open up to trouble...

For instance, I read an article where some groups are saying that Fat phobia is terrorism...  The line is not drawn as to what is and isn't breaking this rule.  The other thread about a black 007 can be considered hate speech if you happen to not agree... If they find out a "difference in opinion" as aopposed to a violation of rules can they cut out service?? It's sounding like the other social media platforms...

But you said security issues... If you use anything windows related, I'd say that's an ongoing issue... Even when all the gaps are filled there still may be shit out there we don;t know about, so proceed with caution... Just like everything else
