An excerpt from 8. User Content of the Terms of Service: "By Posting User Content to or via the Service, to the maximum extent of your rights to do so, including under applicable law, you hereby grant[...] us a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license (with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses)[...] to otherwise improve our products and services and create new products and services, including through the training of AI models." Scratch, despite wanting to "empower millions of young people to express themselves, connect with others, and grow as creative thinkers and changemakers in a space that’s safe, inclusive, and entirely their own" (Scratch Foundation, For Kids) is using whatever its users post on the site to train their AI model. This is deeply upsetting dawg. I've grew up with this site, made lots of friends and even discovered my love for programming and game development here. Now Scratch Team comes out with an update to their TOS basically saying "if you post you stuff here we can use it for our AI models" They completely ignored their motto and their goal to push AI and for that I can no longer endorse this site. You can find me elsewhere. #StopScratchAI
