Facebook is beyond annoying in every possible way. If they have to continue explaining why they're not trying to steal your own life data, maybe it's time to move on. Go away already.
Tens of thousands of Facebook users are protesting new policies that they say grant the social-networking site the ability to control their information forever, even after they cancel their accounts.Note from Joe: I think the bigger danger with Facebook is the increasing number of Facebook's version of chain emails, e.g. 25 things.
Facebook's new terms of use, updated Feb. 4, largely went unnoticed until the popular consumer rights advocacy blog Consumerist.com pointed out the changes Sunday.
That prompted a clarification from Facebook's founder, Mark Zuckerberg, although the new terms remain in force. Zuckerberg told users in a blog post Monday that "on Facebook, people own their information and control who they share it with."
