Facebook Owns Your Photos

For all who have never actually read the Terms of Use for Facebook, they have changed their policies to allow them to own all content you (facebook user) upload.

Now even if you take down pictures from that time you got drunk with the guys, Facebook owns those pictures in their servers and can retrieve them whenever. Even if this may seem minor, this information is ours, it is private, it is not for Facebook. Facebook runs off of membership, exploiting the trust of its members will run it down to the ground, something many users would prefer not to see, considering it is a useful program to keep in touch. Facebook would not lose anything legally or monetarily from not owning its user's photos.

If you have a Facebook account, join the group 100,000,000 Against Facebook Owning Its User's Photos!
