djlosch (the author of that site) elaborates:
,--
| In other words, by posting anything (via Chrome) to your blog(s), any
| forum, video site, myspace, itunes, or any other site that might happen to
| be supporting you, Google can use your work without paying you a dime.
| They can go and edit it all they want. Even further, you're claiming that
| you have the power to grant these rights.
