Reading the Content License Agreement for the streaming API I am confused by how the granting of a license to publicly display the content from the streams (1i. Content License) works with the obligation to use only for internal purposes. What does "internal purposes" mean here? Does the "unless expressly authorized herein" part negate the restriction to not release the data publicly? Or this just to prevent people from reselling the data? ---- from CLA start ------ 1. Content License. "Twitter grants you a nonexclusive, revocable license to use the Content to: (i) use, reproduce, distribute, transmit, publicly display and publicly perform the Content thereof, solely on and through your Service. " .... 5. Your Obligations. (e) User Data. You may only use the Content and Content Feed and any data resulting or provided therefrom for internal purposes only and, unless expressly authorized herein, you may not publicly release or disclose any data or usage statistics or other information (in the aggregate or otherwise) regarding the Content. You agree to and will make available to Twitter any data, usage statistics or other information (in the aggregate) regarding the access and use of the Content. ---- from CLA end ------ - Steve Rife DIgital Garage http://twitter.com/melobubu
