I seem to be blogging about Terms of Service changes lately (see LMT post below). This time it’s Facebook that’s drawing criticism for changing its TOS. Check out this post from the Consumerist for the full story (via das Textdepot). Here’s an excerpt from a Facebook reps’ interpretation of the new TOS:
That is, if you send a message to another user (or post to their wall, etc…), that content might not be removed by Facebook if you delete your account (but can be deleted by your friend).
Update (02/18): Facebook today announced that it will temporarily revert back to the old TOS while it is working out the kinks in the new one. Mark Zuckerberg also announced the creation of a Facebook Bill of Rights & Responsibilities in his blog post.
