<div>In this context, the word "display" does not mean "render on a screen"</div>
but rather to "publicly exhibit", or put on display. There is no<br>
difference here between MythWeather and Firefox. The difference is<br>
public display vs. private viewing. They're saying public displays of<br>
the data are forbidden (without further licensing).</blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Says you. I'm sorry, I am not a lawyer, and don't wish to be one. However, I am not debating the interpretation of their TOS. As you are not the person on the hook for this, it is easy for you to posture how you will. I don't have that luxury. I don't need the potential of cease & desist notices, etc. In my reading, and that of several others, we were at *best* in the grey area, and at worst, flagrantly violating their TOS. I chose to err on the side of caution and remove it and remove all doubt.<br>

<br>I don't mean for the case of <a href="http://weather.com">weather.com</a> in particular, I mean for the project as a whole, on an on going basis.<br></div></div>
