Facebook owns you!

[Cheech]

Check out their new terms of service.

Make sure you never upload anything you don't feel comfortable giving away forever, because it's Facebook's now. Even if you close your account.

I saw this on Perez's website, but what could they take? Just pictures?

 

[Cheech]

^^^ anything you upload . pics, videos, notes, etc etc .. Any creative work an artist puts on FB belongs to them once it's upladed to their site.

 

[Hooked Newbie]

Gah!!! All my drunk pics are now their's?!

Wait, so do they retain liability for anything I may have done those nights?

 

[stezatois]

haha they should. As for creative works, once created then its already legally belonging to the creator so how can someone else own something thats not legally theirs in the 1st place?

Well that's ghetto... Time to remove pics from facebook.

Thats not strictly true...A lot of sites, when you upload data ( pics etc etc ) you actually transfer the rights to the site....

Great. Time to remove my good photos from Facebook. And my notes that I want to own. Of course, I guess they technically already own them. Grr...I think a little warning would've been nice.
