Has the 'we own the mods' ever even been tested in court? I seriously can't imagine it would stand up. If I write a .json file, a company can't just own my intellectual property because when dropped into a certain folder it magically is read by their game to do stuff, so therefore, they then own it.
If you ever find out I would love to know. I have not heard of anything like that nor do I believe it would work in front of an unbiased court and a non boomer judge.
The only thing I could think would be derivative works like the KSP mod that updates/improves all the models and skins. Aside from that it'd be like saying that if I design a wheel hub that fits on a Toyota Camry, Toyota therefore owns it. Which is insane, that doesn't work like that.
