Aquantus Seal of Approval

Terms and Conditions

(Version 1.1, 25 July 2025)

Preamble

The licenses for most online services are designed to take away your freedom and limit your responsibility. By contrast, the aquantus.ru Public License is intended to guarantee your responsibility and outline our shared principles of operation. It is founded on two ideas: The Philosophy of the Warm Coat and the Law of the Common Greatcoat.

The Philosophy of the Warm Coat holds that if a tool is functional, reliable, and serves its purpose, it should be valued and maintained. It prioritizes stability over novelty and sufficiency over excess. Your account, your data, and your conduct are your "Warm Coat" in this digital space.

The Law of the Common Greatcoat is the foundational fabric of our community. Just as it is said that great literature "came out of Gogol's Greatcoat," all interactions on this service "come out of" these fundamental rules.
