@martin_piper @InkomTech @atatassault @jlsigman @ben In other posts in this thread, specifically https://mastodon.social/@martin_piper/112397409562740543 , you correctly cite the relevant section of SO's Terms of Service to establish that nobody can revoke the permissions they granted to Stack Exchange Inc. Unfortunately, it seems you were only skimming, since you missed the part before that where they establish what those permissions are:

> You agree that any and all content [...] that you provide to the public Network (collectively, “Subscriber Content”), is perpetually and irrevocably licensed to Stack Overflow on a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive basis pursuant to Creative Commons licensing terms (CC BY-SA 4.0),

Now, since you're the copyright expert here, kindly explain how it is that Stack Exchange Inc "owns" the content if it is bound by a license. Who would enforce that license? Who would be paid damages if the license were violated?
