And Blink's answer to Valhall:

Valhall-

I hereby notice you that you have 24 hours to NOT take the image down.

My stars with this G A V O N E already, seriously.

He can’t get out of his own way. I wonder if it is more about the fact that his personal facebook lists his firm credentials, which is a form of advertising, and subject to FBA rules and regs.

Perhaps he will sue Facebook now for not informing him via billboard of their terms instead of a small box to check.

You would think with a murder case to defend he might not have alot of openings in his schedule for bouts with frivolity.

Tisk, Tisk.

Thanks for the am chuckle my friend-
B

Reports JB probably should have read before he loaded his personal pictures to FB:

Facebook's New Terms Of Service: "We Can Do Anything We Want With Your Content. Forever."

By Chris Walters on February 15, 2009 11:14 PM

This post has generated a lot of responses, including from Facebook. Check them out here.

Facebook's terms of service (TOS) used to say that when you closed an account on their network, any rights they claimed to the original content you uploaded would expire. Not anymore.

Now, anything you upload to Facebook can be used by Facebook in any way they deem fit, forever, no matter what you do later.* Want to close your account? Good for you, but Facebook still has the right to do whatever it wants with your old content. They can even sublicense it if they want.

Who owns photos when uploaded to Facebook

April 22, 2008

There is discussion currently going on regarding who owns photos uploaded to Facebook.

One would assume that the user who uploaded the photos to Facebook would retain all rights associated with the photographs but the Facebook Terms of Use suggest otherwise.

A relevant quote from the Facebook Terms of Use:

By posting User Content to any part of the Site, you automatically grant, and you represent and warrant that you have the right to grant, to the Company an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, worldwide license (with the right to sublicense) to use, copy, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part) and distribute such User Content for any purpose, commercial, advertising, or otherwise, on or in connection with the Site or the promotion thereof, to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such User Content, and to grant and authorize sub licenses of the foregoing.
