Dive Summary:
- David F. Carr writes for Information Week that Udacity videos are posted under a license that allows someone to freely access them and to share them for non-commercial purposes — but editing, altering or remixing them seems to be prohibited.
- Videos from Udacity are typically short clips, so not being able to edit them might not be a big hindrance, but it does point out that the intersection of MOOCs with open educational resources isn't always a 100% match-up.
- Carr says the terms are not unreasonable but do bear exploring and understanding.
