ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The license is perpetual and irrevocable, meaning users cannot revoke AT&T's rights to their Content after posting, and AT&T can sublicense that Content to third parties.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

By posting Content, you grant AT&T broad, permanent rights over that Content, including the right to modify it, sublicense it, and distribute it, without paying you.
