Yes, they changed something there:
http://www.passport.com/Consumer/TermsOfUse.asp

" ... This section [ ... where MS says, feedback, suggestions concerning
"Passport" and sent to MS will as good as be owned by MS ...(W.P.)] is
inapplicable to any personally identifiable information that you provide
in connection with your registration for the Passport Service(s)...."

" ...This section also is inapplicable to any documents, information, or
other data that you upload, transmit or otherwise submit to or through any
Passport-Enabled Properties ... "

but near the end of this
"AGREEMENT BETWEEN USER AND MICROSOFT CORPORATION"
this:
"All contents of the Passport Web Site are: Copyright © 1999-2001
Microsoft, Inc. ..."

I'm not a lawyer, and English is not my first language, but it seems there
is a contradiction between the first two limitations and the last option
concerning the Copyright ...
