Arduino Clarifies Terms and Conditions Following Backlash: "Anything That Was Open, Stays Open"
Summary
Arduino is clarifying its updated terms and privacy policy after users raised concerns about reverse engineering restrictions and ownership of user-created content. The company says the changes apply only to its proprietary Arduino Cloud SaaS platform, not to open-source hardware, software, schematics, or libraries. It also says published content remains owned by the user and can be used only to support requested platform features such as cloud services and collaboration. The company is using its FAQ and blog post to reassure the community that its open-source commitments remain unchanged.
