FAcebook using YOUR pics for ads? - Brett P - 11-09-2012 11:05 AM

Little article I just read:
http://www.walletpop.com/blog/2009/07/17/facebook-now-lets-advertisers-use-your-picture/

What's your take on this? I knew that Facebook retained rights to pictures posted on the site, but I didn't know that they would essentially sell them to advertisers... I personally find it disgusting that companies can get away with this contempt for the rights of private citizens. I also think that it's one more nail in the coffin of Facebook. Eventually the users there will have had enough... But of course Facebook will still continue use their images, even after their accounts are canceled.

My fir as well is how many more cites like Face Book are doing the same?That would answer why I get so many Spam Emails saying i red your profile and like what you sed.There are only 2 cites I have my profile,Yahoo Answers and Myspace.Some quot lines from my profile and show a picture of them selves much too young to be or lived in the 50's and the 60's.No way they know the fir of the cold wore.They don't know the meaning of being a Down Winder.Or Duck And Cover.Or be told,You can breath D.D.T. and not suffer from its ill affect of killing bugs.
