Is This Correct Of Facebook And Will This Notification Make Any Difference. I Ve Seen It Pop Up A Couple Of Times This Morning On Various Pages.

Due to the fact that Facebook has chosen to involve software that will allow the theft of my personal information, I do declare the following: On this date August 31st 2014 In response to the new Facebook guidelines and under articles L.111, 112 and 113 of the code of intellectual property, I declare that my rights are attached to all my personal data, drawings, paintings, photos, texts etc... published on my profile. For commercial use of the foregoing my written consent is required at all times. Those reading this text can copy it and paste it on their Facebook wall. This will allow them to place themselves under the protection of copyright. By this release, I tell Facebook that it is strictly forbidden to disclose, copy, distribute, broadcast, or to take any other action against me on the basis of this profile and/or its contents. The actions mentioned above apply equally to employees, students, agents and/or other staff under the direction of Facebook. The contents of my profile includes private information. The violation of my privacy is punished by the law (UCC 1 1-308 - 308 1 -103 and the Rome Statute). Facebook is now an open capital entity. All members are invited to post a notice of this kind, or if you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you have not published this statement at least once, you will tacitly allow the use of elements such as your photos as well as the information contained in your profile update

Intellectual property law - invented after I got a degree thank god

as a notice it seeks OK

[Retrochic]

I'm confused here -have FB issued this Statement or is it just another daft thing being shared around? I doubt its a legal Statement issued by FB by reading the first line of it!! Really, if you don't want bits of your life made personal don't use FB -Simple!

Are you on a mobile device using Facebook, Ratters?

[woofgang]

RATTER theses things go around on FB on a regular basis, as I understand it, they mean nothing and achieve nothing.

[RATTER15]

Jomlett, I use FB on mobile and PC but this is a notification I have seen posted on other peoples pages. Just curious really.

[ummmm]

This has been doing the rounds for years.

[Jomlett]

Facebook is reportedly testing a feature on its mobile app that allows users to search through old posts from friends using keywords about people or events.

[RATTER15]

woofgang, I am sure you are correct, I wont be losing any sleep over any of it. I generally take these things with a very large pinch of salt.

[Retrochic]

I think with FB the best course of action is to only post stuff about yourself or others that you would be happy to be seen in your local newspaper.

Jom, are we to assume that they want the info for targeted ads?

[Jomlett]

They say this his means if they want to find photos from a birthday party years ago, users only have to search for a few keywords used to tag up those images.


If "they want the info for targeted ads" they already plenty to go on, but they will find more ways to make money.

Thanks Jom.
