So you can't copyright anything you write with it, and if you use it to actually create something, they will own a piece. This company and this entire business model is for Suckers and Dopes only.

đ¨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
