Korean Fair Trade Commission (Chairman Jung Ho Yeol) said that Blizzard Entertainment needs to change or remove 17 parts of their terms/end user agreement for Battle.net use.

The commission said on the 18th that Blizzard needed to change or remove 17 unfair sections of their Battle.net terms regarding user contents right and others.

The commission said "Blizzard's battle.net terms and agreements exclude the duties that the producer (Blizzard) must address, while being unfair to their users and even violating their rights, making them invalid."

They added, "The game user does not have enough technical knowledge about the game compared to the producer, so there is often unfair agreements for the users. Nowadays, users don't stop at simply using the game, but they create new contents using the game, so the rights to user created contents become the main point when dealing with these user agreements."

"We hope with this decision, there will be less damage done to the users due to unfair trade between the game producers and the users in the games to come. Especially we hope that the users rights to their created content will be guaranteed by the terms and agreements."

The following is the main points that the commission saw to be unfair.

โ–ถ Exclusion of the rights of the users to their own created content
ใ…‡Blizzard's terms state that all of the user created contents and their rights belong to Blizzard Entertainment
*User created content is defined as the contents in and outside the game created by the users themselves.
*Contents of the game created by users
- Decided by whether the content is made of aspects in the game. Example) A replay, UMS map. These are made with the images and music in the game, so they are considered contents of the game.
*Contents out of the game created by users
- These are separated from the game itself and include such things posted on the forums.
โ‡’ Change the terms so that the producer can only use the contents of the game created by users (see above) for promotion and providing service to thse users. Change the terms so that the contents outside of the game belongs only to the users.
โ—† The reason for this change
ใ…‡According to copyright laws, the copyright belongs to the person who creates the content.
- If the creativity of a content created by a user is accepted by the copyright laws, it must of course belong to the user. Especially those not specifically integrated into the game should belong to the user that creates it. Those contents that are integrated with the game itself can either be considered creative by the copyright laws or not, so the owner may be the user or the producer of the game, depending on the content. The game itself of course belongs to the producer but the ownership of the user created contents integrated within the game differs for each content.
* Copyright belongs to the user that created the content if the creator's ideas and sentiments are expressed in a creative way. Therefore, the original terms and agreements break the copyright laws since it gives all the rights of the user created content to the producer, when in fact it may belong to the user.

โ–ถ Exclusion of the rights of the users to their account
ใ…‡Blizzard's terms state that all of the accounts and items of the users belong to Blizzard Entertainment.
* Definition of account: a game account that contains the user's ID, character, and other information that would prevent the user from playing if it becomes banned or removed.
* Definition of item: A thing used by a user's online character.
โ‡’ Change so it clearly states the users' rights to be able to use their account and item. This way, if an account is stolen or lost, they can receive legal assistance or assistance from the producer.
โ—† Reason
ใ…‡The user agreement is a game user agreement so it must state the user's rights to use their account and contents. Right now it only states that the accounts and contents only belong to the producer. Like this, the user cannot receive assistance if their accounts or contents get unjustly denied. So, the producer may ignore the users' complaints regarding their accounts saying that they had no rights to them from the beginning. Therefore, the current terms are invalid because it excludes the users' rights to being able to use their accounts and contents.

โ–ถ Unfair termination of service
ใ…‡Blizzard states that they can remove the service for whatever reason as long as they send a notification regarding the reasons for removal of service.
โ‡’ Change it so that the users are notified well beforehand, and a reasonable refund is given for the discontinuation of service.
โ—† Reason
ใ…‡Termination of service is same as termination of contract so the reasons must be limited, and the users must be notified beforehand. Also, the producer has the duty to give a refund for the remainder of the service. Therefore, the current terms that state that the service may be removed at any time for any reason is unfair, and the terms are invalid.

โ–ถ Exclusion of the duties of the producer
ใ…‡ Blizzard states that they are not responsible for any loss or damage caused by the game.
โ‡’ Change so that they are only excluded from taking the responsibility when the damage was not purposely caused.
โ—† Reason
ใ…‡ The producer is required to compensate for damages related to the security of the information, the stability of the server, and the stability of the game program if they are responsible for causing the incident. Also, the producer is responsible if the game is unable to be used, unless caused by the gamer's misuse or client sided issues. The current terms that don't include the legal responsibilities of the producers, therefore putting the responsibilities to the users, makes the terms invalid.

Blizzard has since changed their terms and agreements for Battle.net on the 17th according the commission's opinions.

T/N: I used the words "agreements" and "terms" interchangeably. Also, translating at 2AM was tough, especially for such a tough article with a lot of difficult vocab so I'm sorry if it doesn't 100% make sense.

Thanks for the translation.
I wonder how this will affect copyright agreements for the starleagues.

Blizzard isn't going to change their TOS for Korea. KFTC is just going to have to live with it.

Microsoft Decision

On December 7, 2005, the KFTC reached the decision to order Microsoft Corporation and Microsoft Korea, inter alia, to unbundle certain tied products, including Windows Media Player and MSN Messenger, and to impose surcharges amounting to 33 billion won (31 million US dollars) for violation of the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act (MRFTA), including the abuse of market dominant position provision. On October 16th, 2007, the Associated Press reported that Microsoft has stopped appealing the December 2005 decision and has withdrawn the appeal.


If they could crack Microsoft, Blizzard will be a breeze.

Blizzard has since changed their terms and agreements for Battle.net on the 17th according the commission's opinions.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

I am...surprised they changed them. Perhaps there is hope after all. I hope this means that they will change them outside of Korea as well, though I doubt it. Allowing users rights to content that they imagine and create? Madness! ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL.

I sure wish the FTC in the U.S. made companies change ridiculous Terms of Use.
Try using both Irradiate and Defensive Matrix on an Overlord. It looks pretty neat.

It's so ambiguous though as to what it means, since they are putting up "forum posts" as an example of user created content that's not created wholly within the game. Does that mean what I think it does: that Blizzard previously had the right profit off anything you had written about their games in a forum (and still can outside Korea?).

In any case, it doesn't really help this BW league situation at all, since section 2-iii forbids game leagues without consent, and 8-i still says they reserve the right to all derivative works.... Although, now I'm confused as to what the legal difference between "user created content" and "derivative work" is.
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

That's a bold move towards players rights, but that literally opens the doors to KeSPA winning all their arguments under the court of law, there is NO WAY blizzard agrees to removing all this.

HE JUST WROTE:

Seriously someone just said that like 10 posts up and was promptly corrected. They already not only accepted them, but made them.
