Problem

Both IoT Hub FAQ pages stated that contributed/published items are released under the Apache 2.0 license. That contradicts the IoT Hub Terms of Use & Contributor Agreement (src/pages/products/iot-hub/terms-of-use.astro): "All Contributions are officially licensed under the MIT License" — and the listing UI (src/components/IotHub/DetailHero.astro, licenseLabel = 'MIT license').

Changes

docs/iot-hub/contribution-guides/faq.mdx

  • What license applies to contributed items? — Apache 2.0 → MIT license, linked the Terms of Use, added the copyright-notice condition, dropped the "initial launch phase" framing (the license isn't temporary).
  • Can other users modify and reuse my published content? — "Under the Apache 2.0 structure" → "Under the MIT license".

docs/iot-hub/user-guides/faq.mdx

  • Is IoT Hub free to use?, What license do IoT Hub items use?, Can I use an installed item in a commercial project? — same correction for consistency.

No remaining Apache 2.0 mentions in IoT Hub content.

IoT Hub Terms of Use & Contributor Agreement state that all contributions
are licensed under the MIT License, but both FAQ pages said Apache 2.0.
Corrected all five mentions and linked the Terms of Use.
