Haha, watching the 11PM news on NBC here in lovely Orange and what comes on? Yet another story on a main stream news network about Facebook’s decision to rescind the amendments to its TOS that would make any of its users’ postings, photos, etc. FB property FOREVER. I laugh because stories about social media on main stream networks still comes across awkward. Kinda like a story about TomKat (ehem!).
I do think the FB reversal is a great example of what social media and communities can accomplish. FB users the world over took up arms against FB and its “big brother” like TOS but the most noteworthy movement was started by a USC student and had literally hundreds of thousands of FB users within its ranks. And in a move that proved ironic and apropos, those FB users channeled their frustrations through a Facebook group page built for just that purpose. Hats off to everyone who took the time to educate themselves and others on the issues and then chose to do something about it. And of course, hats off to Facebook for listening to its users and avoiding an FTC inquiry in the process (*wink*).
