Hmm, was just reading the Elder Scrolls Online EULA to see what it says about reverse engineering etc. And I found this little titbit in there.

All Customized Game Materials created by you are exclusively owned by ZeniMax and/or its licensors (as the case may be) and you hereby irrevocably assign and agree to assign to ZeniMax all of your right, title and interest in and to such Customized Game Materials. If applicable law precludes the assignment of all or any portion of your right, title and interest in and to Customized Game Materials, you hereby grant to ZeniMax to the fullest extent permitted by that applicable law a non-exclusive worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under all of your intellectual property rights to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, display and perform such Customized Game Materials and again to the fullest extent permitted by that applicable law you also waive and agree never to assert against ZeniMax, its affiliates and its/their customers any moral rights or similar rights that you may have in the Customized Game Materials;
Would this include addons or is this just a carry over from the single player games that they left in the EULA on their site.

And as I suspected :
You agree that you will not and will not assist any other person, under any circumstances:
A.in whole or in part, distribute, publicly perform of display, sell, transmit, publish, edit, reproduce, sublicense, rent, lease, loan or otherwise transfer the Game, any related software or content, including without limitation any access keys;

B.in whole or in part, modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, attempt to derive source code from, modify, disassemble, decompile, or create derivative works based on the Game; provided, however, that you may make one (1) copy of the Game Client and the manuals that accompany it for archival purposes only and you may install the relevant Game Client on one or more computers by you or under your legitimate control as described in Section 1 above;

C.use cheats, automation software (bots), hacks, mods or any other unauthorized third-party software designed to modify the Game or adversely impact any other persons playing of the Game or his/her experience of playing the Game;
Sounds a bit iffy to even host extraction code as you're then encouraging people to break 'B' if I am reading that correctly.
