It's a different license. Here's a direct link to the Microsoft Research Data License Agreement (PDF): https://msrodr-api.azurewebsites.net//licenses/2f933be3-284d...

Disclaimer: I don't know if this affects your concerns, but it's at least the right license. Disclaimer 2: I work for Microsoft, but not for MSR, and don't know anything specific about this.

Thanks for the link. This version of the license has the same terms and then several more, including:

- If we accidentally gave you people's personal identifying information, it's your job to destroy it

- Your license to us is perpetual but our license to you terminates after 2 years (?!)

- The data is confidential and you may not talk about it for 5 years (OMG WTF)
