Thinking about not using Facebook, anymore/Reviewing LJ TOS

[wolven7]

'Facebook's terms of service (TOS) used to say that when you closed an account on their network, any rights they claimed to the original content you uploaded would expire. Not anymore.

'Now, anything you upload to Facebook can be used by Facebook in any way they deem fit, forever, no matter what you do later. Want to close your account? Good for you, but Facebook still has the right to do whatever it wants with your old content. They can even sublicense it if they want.'

Uhh... Yeah, No. Time to trawl the LJ TOS, again.

[Edit12.36/10.11pm: Why is this here? XIV.4: 'LiveJournal reserves the right, without limitation except by law, to serve any user Content on the web, through the downloadable clients and otherwise. LiveJournal also reserves the right, without limitation, to resell any portion of a user's LiveJournal back to that individual;'

Yeah, that's not good.]
