What I read is UBI decides whatever it wants.
If it profits from freely offered mods, (and we all know this game has been more successful from the free mods and will actually sell more as time goes on from them,) they can waive their right to object.
But, if anything bothers them, like the previous old Pacific Mod pack, well they can squash it (like they did, remember).

What this also does is basically say UBI can let X-1 have permission and the community must bend over.
I have always felt X-1 could examine the mods and do the same stuff if they chose to (certainly most disagreed with me here) but if I read this correctly any mod (as in UBI file modified) belongs to UBI and therefore X-1 has the legal right to use them because UBI allowed them and UBI owns them.

That said. What about the ground up new ships like the beautiful Hood or Roma?
(It seems Seydlitz would be considered a modified ship.)
Does the fact these were made and placed in SH3 mean UBI has a right to them?
This seems like a no to me but is the wording such they could actually claim them?
I am obviously not speaking (again) about what is right as we can all agree it would not be right.
But, do they have the legal right or does there own clause “contrary to morality” fit these totally new works as it would seem.
When I look at the Hood and Roma; taking them without compensation (a fair price) would be considered a sin and a crime against Modaminty!
There must be a legal line. Just how far does this user agreement go to them holding all the cards?
