Facebook Responds to Concerns Over Terms of Service

[Monorail_Red]

This was at the top of my home page this morning when I logged into Facebook:

Terms of Use Update

Over the past few days, we have received a lot of feedback about the new terms we posted two weeks ago. Because of this response, we have decided to return to our previous Terms of Use while we resolve the issues that people have raised. For more information, visit the Facebook Blog.

If you want to share your thoughts on what should be in the new terms, check out our group Facebook Bill of Rights and Responsibilities.

I am pleased that they did listen to the community, but unfortunately now I refuse to trust that they won't sneak that back in sometime. Any images I have that I want to keep for my uses are no longer available to them. But I am glad they listened.

They had previously snuck in a license to change the TOS whenever they feel like it. I just stick all my pictures on Flickr and have the flickr app link to them. And BW, you know I will aid with whatever websites you need :)

I will be talking to you very soon. Do you know how to use Flash, and can you teach me? :D:

I learned some flash, then forgot it, then had a friend start his photography business and wanted to use flash. We compromised and he bought a template and I manage it for him :)

I have accounts on shutterfly, flickr, picasa, etc. My favorite tool, Gallery 2 running on my own server :D:

I strongly dislike Flash. It is a programming language written by artists.

Yeah, I prefer not to use flash as well. I think that all websites should be text only! Long live lynx!

Oh, and while we're on the geeky subject, keep html out of email!

The thing I like about Flash or some similar program is that I could display my work without ugly watermarks, and while it could still be stolen, it would be difficult to steal it with any quality. Are there other programs that allow that?

That's the thing is how to prevent someone from stealing your content. Flash is a good answer, and works for my friend, except the images are still in the cache ;)

If they can see it they can steal it. Watermarks really are the best option.

I use http://www.PopDrops.com and can capture any image on the screen even flash. Flash is not guaranteed to prevent theft. I have seen kids under the age of 14 stealing flash.
