An answer to the question about how leveling guides (Zygor's/Dugi's/etc.) get around the ToS:

They don't charge for their addon, which is just an in game document viewer that interprets specially formatted guide documents to show you text, waypoint arrows, etc. as well as various features like checking your quest progress to put you at the right spot in the guide. That, you can get, and update for free. What they are charging for is the guide itself; the specially formatted text document that gets read by the addon. Loopholes ftw.
