Evidence of WordPress' Changed Abuse Terms (original version) by dysamoria

Another member of Dysamoria.com found, via the wonderful Google Cache, the previous version of the WordPress Abuse page. The wording used to be:

"In addition to spam and copyright issues, we will suspend blogs or blog posts for the following types of abuse:

  • Personal threats and revealing of personal information
  • Calls to violence
  • Impersonation of a private person
  • Accusations that can be proven wrong (for example wrongfully calling someone a convicted felon)"

Excised about two weeks ago is the last bullet point: "Accusations that can be proven wrong (for example wrongfully calling someone a convicted felon)."

The Google Cache was recorded March 6th 2010, leading us to believe that this specific event (the hate-blog & related complaints) is indeed what lead them to make the changes we've shown you.

(the link wont last long, but here's the proof till it's excised by WordPress or automatic Google bot updates)
