Media In Response to New Facebook Guidelines, I Hereby Declare You Guys Are Dummies
Posted by Henry Stewart on Mon, Nov 26, 2012 at 10:35 AM
"The law just doesn't work that way. Facebook users cannot retroactively negate any of the privacy or copyright terms they agreed to when they signed up for their Facebook accounts," the site notes. "Moreover, the fact that Facebook is now a publicly traded company... has nothing to do with copyright protection or privacy rights."
It's another example of a basic truth: you can't change the world, or the law, by clicking a button. Beating the system might begin on social networks, but it doesn't end there.
And of course, protecting your privacy on Facebook is super easy. You don't have to do anything—you don't even have to post anything to Facebook. Like, nothing at all.
