Man Who Has Never Read Terms And Conditions Finds He Technically Owes His Soul To Abodey
Coimbatore graphic designer Suresh Rajan, 29, made the troubling discovery last week that a clause buried in section 41.7.b of the Abodey Creative Cloud terms he agreed to in 2018 technically entitles Abodey Systems Inc. to ownership of 'any and all intangible assets including, but not limited to, creative energy, spiritual residue, and applicable soul-adjacent intellectual property generated during periods of active licence.' A legal review commissioned by Suresh and his deeply concerned mother confirmed the clause is 'technically valid under current IP law in three jurisdictions.' Abodey's spokesperson said the company 'has no immediate plans to exercise this provision' but noted the terms are 'reviewed annually.' Suresh has downgraded to the Photography Plan.
