Does the creator of a Facebook page own the copyright to posts? - Inquisitive One - 10-15-2012 07:59 PM

Can a Facebook page be used to gather information for a potential book on a particular subject? If so, what wording needs to be added to the page?

Just because you have recorded content onto your own recording device, this does not necessarily mean that you own the copyright to that material or that you are authorized to use it. Disclaiming ownership of that content cannot protect you from infringing on the true owner's copyright. If you have any question whatsoever as to whether you are legally authorized to post any content, consult an attorney before uploading it to the Facebook website.
