Here's an article about this with FB's response.
As for me, I am not going to post my photography work on FB and I just removed this blog from being automatically updated on it. I invite you to do the same if you are a professional visual artist. Or if you are not. They can take your music, design, anything.
Demand that FB respect your legal rights, instead of trying to take them away.
did anything change after you posted this? or still in effect?
ReplyDeleteIt changed a little bit. I still wouldn't post images on Fb. I am only posting a few small resolution photographs.
