This is why everyone who has commentated on this thread has missed the point by a great margin.
Which is? How to licence is your code?

tl;dr after the first few points, but the user EULA is usually full of crap i.e. it violates local/federal laws in lots of places, thus even though it says stuff, when they actually try to enforce it they will run into problems.
E. Location.
If you are a resident of the United States, any arbitration will take place at any reasonable location convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration (other than claims proceeding in any small claims court), or where no election to arbitrate has been made, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the County of Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America, and you and Blizzard agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
They have their bases covered no matter where a dispute occurs because of that part you quoted there Miz.For residents outside the United States, any arbitration shall be initiated in the County of Los Angeles, State of California, United States of America.
No. 1 means licencing for commercial purpose, which I'm totally fine with, and surely many users, especially if they map for fun and not for financial interest@ Doomhammer. I agree with you, but that's mostly just semantics if you ask me.
I can't quite see your reasoning of legitimacy. Build a house with a box of tools - would the guy who sold the tools in your sense legitimately own the house? Why should he now own all the material plus all the hard work of the other person who built the house?The whole point of that part of the EULA is so that 3rd party people (like us) will not make profit off a tool if and when that profit legitimately belongs to Blizzard.
I'll have this as a finishing thought before the whole litany is repeated over and over again.Your analogy is completely incorrect. Blizzard is a neighborhood. Starcraft II is a house, so is Warcraft III. You can use the world editors to make furniture and rooms within those houses, but no matter how different and unique your room is, no matter how much work you put into it, it's still Blizzard's house.
