Citizenmanman Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Same here... I write short stories and whatnot, I can't go and put those things in a blog or something on there now... don't bands put there music on there... what happens with that... I am assuming that facebook owns whatever music is on the site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
† cloud1414 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yup so basically anything you put on facebook now they can use it, sell it, and make profit and you can do nothing about it. Have fun trying to take them to court about it, you will just loose in court. So yeah this is really getting out of hand now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
