Minecraft's recent EULA changes place heavy restrictions on Java servers (twitter.com)

Just spreading awareness about whatever the fuck Mojang thinks they're doing. Given their enforcement of the EULA, or the lack thereof, this probably isn't going to have as huge of an impact, but I think it's still something worth talking about.

Here's an article on dotesports.com if you don't want to visit Twitter.

The Minecraft EULA itself as of 2nd August. I've got the attention span of a rat on cocaine, so if someone could check if Rock solid's points are an accurate summary of the EULA, I'd appreciate that.

Can't be fucked to read the EULA, but the added context under the tweet says it's about pornography/gambling/etc in for profit servers.

... Which is still ridiculous overreach, but not what the original poster said.

The link for these Usage Guidelines is not working for me for some reason, but the linked reddit thread on the article says that all private servers will be treated as if commercial. If that's correct, it's pretty concerning.
