x = "make the functionality of the Software or a Modified version available to third parties as a service"
y = "distribute the Software or a Modified version"
You may not X, or (Y in a manner that X)
Perfectly normal legalese. Just like "included but not limited to..." it sets a condition and adds a more specific version of that condition, which seems redundant but helps during actual litigation.
They cheaped out on the lawyer. Maybe it's a chatGPT lawyer.
I don't see anything wrong with the quote? Other than the policy itself being a ridiculous change, the wording is pretty standard legal speak. Not sure why you're jumping to "ChatGPT Lawyer"
You may not X in a way that X
Definitely reads weird to me. It should suffice to say "you may not X".
You may not X in a way that Y
implies thatYou may X in a way that does not Y
, and is more specific (and changes the meaning of the license) vsYou may not X
The legal distinction in this case allows for distributing the software for example as source code, but not as a service.
