It still looks pretty standard for a social media platform, it covers their bases for legalities. I can see how someone could read that and be concerned, but I’ll bet https://mastodon.social/@dansup would reply if someone asked a question for clarification on mastodon, he’s generally really good about that.

Edit Update: Seems like someone had similar concerns and dansup replied here: https://mstdn.social/@EdanOsborne/113413398742299770

What exactly is a red flag there? It seems pretty boilerplate from a quick skim.

Wanna source that? Cause I’ve been following loops a bit and haven’t seen anything close to that. If anything it’s the opposite.

It’s not wrong, it’s just generally offensive since colloquially “it” refers to objects rather than a individual.

And as it follows, “it” is used as a insulting term when people want to dehumanize something.

Also it’s “They go” and “I go”, perfectly serviceable for singular use.
