Hi Colin I hope you read this, I have been your subscriber for a long time, years now, I loved how you teach editing in premier pro, I have learned a lot from you, the only thing I ask is don't fall into this adobe corporate vs people fight, don't think that the people are stupid, you don't have to defend the corporate, it's the subscriber who got you here so far, it's the viewer and admirer who watches your videos don't let them go away by doing such controversial videos, I am very dissipated at you, really wish you read this ❤

[@kayom2000]

Very interesting that you explain legal things even though you say you are not a lawyer. The fact that it is even necessary to explain terms and conditions to stupid users is quite a thing, you may even be doing it on behalf of Adobe. Adobe is forcing every stupid user to accept the terms and conditions, even though they obviously know that nobody understands them except lawyers. But it's not just Adobe, it's all the big techs.

[@montalvomachado]

Adobe has set fire to its own brand, reputation and 30 years of worldwide trust. There’s no such thing as unburning.

[@SimoAtlas]

What's more funny is that you explained that but the terms are designed to be interpreted differently based on the situation legally. You skipped 2.2 .4 because it doesn't align with the narrative!

[@themalmana]

You mean 2.2 D..? yes he covered it

[@marek_tarnawski]

Sounds like you need to be with lawyer when you sign Terms of Service.

[@comalab2387]

funny how explicit they are about how they won't use it for "generative" AI. I wonder if there are other types of AI. ah... its probably fine i hardly know anything about the topic.

[@montalvomachado]

There’s a federal law suit against Adobe, and for a plausible reason.

[@DonaldWMeyers-dwm]

Notice Colin conveniently failed to mention that.

[@l.e.phillips]

For sure. I don’t think it has much to do with the things in this particular video though. I do, however, hope Adobe loses that lawsuit.

[@themalmana]

As far I understand the law suit is about fees on cancelling the subscription not about the terms of service

[@montalvomachado]

@@themalmana both meaning that Adobe treats customers like garbage. And the backlash for the company has turned into a worldwide scandal.

[@nemomonteflores3890]

Thanks, Colin. As always, you’re a big help ❤

[@joefilter2923]

Yes, of course we own our content, but Adobe assumes a sublicense, which is entirely the problem. If you do not discuss this explicitly then there is no point to speaking. Do we really need someone outside of Adobe to explain what adobe means. Perhaps if you were a lawyer it might be more plausible. Why wouldn’t Adobe explain all this from the beginning?

[@alexandruciochia8513]

So… Adobe need to access my content to allow me to open Photoshop. And that has to be stipulated in the contract. Great. If this is a new addition to the contract, then prior to that, Adobe accessed my content without my consent? Just wondering. That’s a first. Then, lawyers speak a different language. Agreed. But when in court, you discover that all those little things you explained in plain english (not legaleese), and you laughed, have, in fact, another meaning, a little bit different. One that, in the end, could make you cry. (from my experience, never thrust a lawyer working for the other part, not even when you are a lawyer :).

[@contactkelvinsim]

I guess in the past.. everything is in your computer and you opened your own files. Now the files are on adobe cloud servers and Adobe has to open the files for you to access.

[@doji-san]

@@contactkelvinsim Did adobe accessed his work on his computer, when he opened them prior to the change?

[@alexandruciochia8513]

@@contactkelvinsim Right. Only that I've used Adobe Cloud prior to the change. So...

[@shanti34567]

I’m not a lawyer but already figured out that this was not what the outrage gurus were screaming! Thanks for doing this video. It was a great day for Adobe wannabes though. I tried, for example, Resolve. Not even close to Adobe for so many reasons. Again, thanks for bringing the voice of reason.

[@AbrazoProductions]

Resolve is used by Hollywood Studies and will be the standard software. If you have tried enough I think you will have said otherwise. I have used Adobe since nearly the beginning. But now for 5 years i have used Davinci Resolve Studio and Capture One to all my documentaries and corporate works.

[@LunaJLane]

With you not being a lawyer, I will not take your word for or believe your interpretations. With this having gone to a federal lawsuit, there is definitely a problem you are skipping over.

[@LarryK-jg6iw]

I've just read the federal lawsuit. You should, too. It's very easy to understand. The Federal Trade Commission is suing Adobe for its alleged illegally complicated and confusing subscription contract for Creative Cloud services. This may very well have been brought on by the rash of cancellation attempts and the application of "Early Termination Fees" ( ETF) inspired by subscribers reacting to the "new" terms of service implemented by Adobe with regard to certain content being used for research and product improvement in the field of artificial intelligence, among others. The point is, the FTC lawsuit HAS NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH USER CONTENT OWNERSHIP OR ADOBE'S CHANGES TO ITS TERMS OF SERVICE. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ISSUES COLLIN IS ADDRESSING IN THIS VIDEO. If Collin is "skipping over" the FTC lawsuit, it's simply because the lawsuit is in NO WAY related to the PRIMARY issue of why people are running around shooting flaming arrows at Adobe as if their own hair was on fire. There are two very different things going on here. Try to understand at least one of them.

[@quick_dirty]

Nice gaslighting by just mentioning the harmless use cases and concealing the crucial possibilities. It's like giving your car keys to a guy who claims he only needs the access to be able to drive it into your garage. When the guy runs away with your car, you legally have no chance because you gave him the keys.

[@Jambo1999]

Oh! Clickbait thumbnail. I wanted to see you do the whole video in a suit and tie!

[@ffaabb79]

I'm about to leave the ship for good, after thinking about it for many years now. The fact that they removed de Fx label color in premiere 2024 🤦 Now you don't know what clip has what effect on it... I'm done with them, enough is enough. I want stability, i'm done having to find workaround all the time. I'm done having to render and re render and re re re render everything all the time. And I want to save money too. I'd love a video from you : How to completely remove Adobe from your system, because the files are all over the place. I think I will even reinstall my whole system after I cancel my subscription.

[@joefilter2923]

Oh great another view from an Adobe evangelist! Oh, I mean ex Adobe. Some people take a somewhat extreme view of the situation, making the worst of it, but most people seem to want to know the facts of the matter and it’s still cloudy.

[@adcrane]

Thanks for this.

[@shimronnetia]

Thank you Colin

[@shanti34567]

KZbin needs an addition to the LIKE button. It needs a “HELL YEAH!” Button, too.

[@CsokaErno]

Actually, the original terms was different. And even if they do not scan our hard drive, they scan our system. By the way, the government sued Adobe because of their unfair cancellation policy - which is a fact - and not because of legal rights. Adobe makes pretty good softwares, industry standard and all but they behave as if they were masters on us, slaves. For instance they are aware of many inconsistency amongst Photoshop, Illustrator, Premier, After Effects but they insist on these silly things. They change their softwares and ignore the customers. And so on. The software giant could be the best thing in computer world but of course, their greed and imperialism destroy everything. Normal human...

[@marcgothic]

I never get crazy about these things. Thanks Colin for explaining!!

[@jmshrrsn]

At last some common sense. Despite some of the nonsensical comments here. Sick of KZbinrs jumping on a bandwagon that thinks it, at last, has found an excuse to bash a hugely successful - and talented - software firm. The amount of hypocrisy I’ve seen on YT over this doesn’t surprise me, however. If you don’t like the TOS, don’t agree to it and go take your business elsewhere. Simple. As I’ve said elsewhere, if I ran a business where there was risk of the public uploading child pornography to MY servers, I’d want the right to interrogate my drives. University of KZbin versus trained lawyers. I rest my case.

[@doji-san]

Yup, I took my business elsewhere, Affinity to be precise...

[@fpvx3922]

Haha, "that should make you feel much better!" lol... yeah, when did a company that is known for lieing and betraying, making it difficult for their customers sound not believable! Seriously why do you even talk about it, when you are not a lawyer?

[@contactkelvinsim]

At the end of the day... Me and my content holds little value compared to Adobe's reputation. So I doubt they'll do anything questionable for my content.

[@ox2design]

Sponsored by Dell and NVidia? hahahaha

[@anal_mole]

You're as honest as Adobe (not a complement). Unsubscribe.

[@Vova3iLvova]

THE REAL TRUTH is that adobe is a shit company

[@spidersote]

This is bulshit.
