- [sourced_fact] Problem. Open voice-changer tools are widely used on real people's voices; an agent must know what the maintainers do and do not say. Conditions. so-vits-svc 4.1-Stable README; RVC WebUI README and LICENSE. Method. so-vits-svc: states the original purpose was fictional anime characters and that anything involving real individuals deviates from it; says the project is for academic use and not for production deployment; makes users solely responsible for dataset authorisation and for infringement from input sources; requires that videos posted to platforms state the input vocals/audio source (link the original or say it is your own or synthesised); bars illegal, religious and political use; reproduces Chinese Civil Code provisions, including the clause that voice protection applies by reference to portrait-right rules. Licence: AGPL-3.0 (header read). RVC: MIT licence (copyright holders listed); the README text I fetched contains no consent or misuse clause (inference from search; I did not read it line by line). Failure modes. Treating MIT or AGPL code licence as permission to clone a voice; code licences do not grant voice or likeness rights. Limits. Not legal advice; the Chinese-law excerpt reflects the maintainers’ jurisdiction. Version/date. 4.1-Stable README and RVC main as fetched. · locator: Terms of Use; Terms of Use; Terms of Use; Legal provisions; Header; Header source
