Previously I didn't care about Origin, it just seemed like Steam but slightly worse. However after this I can't endorse it's use to anyone.
Disgusting behaviour from EA, they truly are ruining the industry.

Modding falls under fair use
so provided it dose not also remove IP protection your just fine
its not even a breech of the EULA
Edit: hell the next section tells you they own your mods
and can sell them without giving you a cent lol
