Epyrus • Re: Unclear about the License

Well, since this section deals with services you aren't actually operating, it would actually suffice just fine to mention that it relies on "third party services that are subject to their own licensing" and leave it at that. I decided to pull the preferred legal framework and venue explicitly to my country of residence so I wouldn't have to deal with any litigation requiring me to go abroad and be subject to foreign law as a result (not that I ever expect it to become a problem). I could have also chosen my country of citizenship, or the country where the server is hosted... The reason Mozilla chose California is, I'm pretty sure, also because their legal bulwark will be in Silicon Valley. But since the Epyrus add-ons service isn't actually operated by you, I don't even see why you'd have to pick a venue (unless you really want to). It's fine to not have that clause at all and leave it up to the legal system to suggest a proper venue, (which you can always motion to have changed if litigation is a problem), or, as I said, let them be deferred to the third party (if you ever decide to change it to a different hoster, it can be in effect without you needing to change anything in the license)
