Which is great, except that this entire thread is about how Reddit's rules and policies are changing. So just pointing to the old user agreement and saying "well, there you go" is no more useful than pointing to old quotes from /u/spez or /u/kn0thing about the importance of free speech and using them as your guide on content.
Furthermore, while it says that legal issues will be resolved in California, that doesn't necessarily imply that California's laws and community standards will be the only guidelines applied w/r/t disputes regarding content.

Unless they change the governing law (highly unlikely unless they relocate their headquarters to a different state), all references to what is "illegal" are in reference to the laws of the state of California. This really isn't as hard to comprehend as you are trying to make it.
