How many of you use Facebook?

A lot of people know about the controversy with Facebook already. For those of you that don't basically Facebook is trying to change some of the rules and people are upset about it. One of the main things is the clause stating how they can use our content.

proposed Statement of Rights and Responsibilities

2.3 For content that is covered by intellectual property rights (like photos and videos), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, copy, publicly perform or display, distribute, modify, translate, and create derivative works of (“use”) any content you post on or in connection with Facebook. This license ends when you delete your content or your account.

As a photographer this is very disturbing to me and I figured it would be to some of you as well.

They are giving people a chance to voice their opinion before they come up with a final set of terms (to be voted on). If you are interested in expressing outrage or if you agree (for some odd reason) you can make your comments here
