Is it known if Mojang is treating home family use of an account as a EULA violation?
The Minecraft EULA states under "Using our Game" section that
[...] you cannot sell or rent the Game, or make it available for access to other people [...]
However, I'd like to purchase the Game to play myself a little and to allow my kid to play as a reward for his school study success. Only one of us is expected to play the Game at any moment.
I am not asking for a lawyer advice. What I actually want to know is what the practice being implemented so far is: Have Mojang been enforcing one-license-per-family-member?

What happens if you break Mojang EULA?
The license and permission we give you to use and play our Game can be revoked if you break any of the terms of this EULA. When you buy our Game, you receive a license that gives you permission to install the Game on your own personal device and use and play it on that device as set out in this EULA.Is giving away Minecraft account legal?
If they're giving away Minecraft GIFT CODES then yes, it's legal.Can 2 people use the same Mojang account?
Yes, you can both log in to the same account and play singleplayer or multiplayer (on different servers). You cannot both be on the same server at the same time because there would be a username conflict.Does a Microsoft account count as a Mojang account?
Don't worry \u2013 the only thing that's changing is how you log in to the game! We're only moving Mojang accounts to Microsoft accounts, which gives you access to new security features. Minecraft: Java Edition will stay exactly the same, and we'll continue to update and support it in the future.Why you SHOULDN'T migrate to a Microsoft Account
