I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Old news, but unfortunately not widely known.

Also, your cameras, especially phones, place a GPS stamp on your pictures showing exactly where you were when the picture was taken. Yes this "feature" can be turned off, but again sadly it is not widely known.

Yeah, it's part of the user agreement- you are sharing content with them. That's what you are 'paying' for the free service- content.

What goes on the "internet" stays on the internet.

Pretty standard for any website. For Instance:

YOU HEREBY GRANT MYFITNESSPAL AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, REPRESENTATIVES, SUBLICENSEES, SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “MYFITNESSPAL PARTIES”) A PERPETUAL, FULLY PAID-UP, WORLDWIDE, SUBLICENSABLE, IRREVOCABLE, ASSIGNABLE LICENSE TO COPY, DISTRIBUTE, TRANSMIT, PUBLICLY DISPLAY OR PERFORM, EDIT, TRANSLATE, REFORMAT AND OTHERWISE USE USER CONTENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE OPERATION OF THE WEBSITE, SERVICES OR ANY OTHER SIMILAR OR RELATED BUSINESS, IN ANY MEDIUM NOW EXISTING OR LATER DEVISED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IN ADVERTISING AND PUBLICITY.

Any website you use owns basically everything you post there.

I took this information straight from facebook just now

i would hope that no one uses Facebook as their photo repository where they delete the photo from their HD after they upload to FB.

My theory is this I don't post anything on the internet that I don't want the world to see or read.

It isn't even a matter of that. I've taken some really beautiful photos over the years and had it in the back of my mind to maybe try and sell them someday. Or even if I never do, I don't want someone else making money off of my work.

If you think about it...ANYBODY can copy and paste/save any picture uploaded to ANY site as long as they have acces to your pictures...so in reality it's not just FB b/c ANYBODY out there that can view your picture can choose to do whatever they please with them.

lol, if your dumb enough to use identitytheftbook then deal with the consequences.

So they might want to make a dart board of my pictures and throw darts at them?

Old, not true, myth call it what you want.
