1What “infringing uploads prohibited” means here

A plain prohibition names infringing material as off limits without laying out the complaint process in the terms read. Removal can still happen; the route sits in other policies.

2Other tools with this reading

HeyGen, Kling AI, PopShort, Revid and Topview have the same reading, which makes 6 of the 24 tools.

Terms of service change without notice, so the current version on the tool's site governs.

3Why it matters for a book

Takedown runs the other way from the warranty: it is how a rights holder complains about something you uploaded. Where repeat infringers are removed, notices add up, and an account can be closed together with the projects in it.
