Does anyone know if anyone ever tried to sue the DMOZ organization or an editor for "unfair competition". E.g. if a websites of competitors are listed and there is no apparent reason why it has not been added for a long time?

E.g. if it can be prooved that in a certain category are only a small number of new site additions and the editor has logged in regularly, it would be hard to prove he has not "seen" the website. If several independent people would come to the same conlusion, a website is worth to be listed, this would be a clear case.

What do you think?

I also know that terms&conditions are not always accepted, i.e. sometimes terms&conditions (e.g. from DMOZ) are not ok from a legal point of view.

You'd need to address all of your queries to AOL Legal. They don't permit editors to discuss such matters with non-editors. For that reason, I'm closing the thread. Please don't start another on the same topic.
