You absolutely did consent to this.

See: User Content Transmitted Through the Site

To be incredibly pedantic to the point of being irrelevant: technically the sign up page 1) doesn't have a clickwrap "I agree" checkbox, and 2) there's no link to the TOS on the sign up page.

That makes the implicit TOS agreement legally confusing depending on jurisdiction.

(Not that it really matters, but I find these technicalities amusing)

I’m reading that paragraph now and fail to see anything about a relationship with huggingface or the user responsible for copying the data.
Only Y Combinator and its affiliated companies have license, me thinks.
That's a good point, and I think this will be my last post on this site. I never added much value anyway.
@dang What’s Hacker News’ official stance on this?
This isn't presented anywhere on signup.
