SHEEPLE WAKE UP BEFORE YOU FIND YOURSELVES SELLING GUM AT THE STREET LIGHTS!!! Facebook is blackmailing all its users, and they are like sheep: Happy, singing "Maaa" ("I Agree")!
And for the last two sentences... There is a catch... Well, you can only pity the not-so-smart ones! (Hint: I underlined the clues)
This sin is not exclusive to Facebook only, but it is God-damned one of the most dangerous Terms of Use on the surface of this planet!! This post is a word for the wise...

Does it really matter if they appropriate my intellectual property? People steal ideas, pictures & words from each other every day. Only the narcissistic, overbloated egos of the world would strive hard at guarding their branded intellectual by-products, and usually with the help of an overpaid agent.
Facebook can take my posted content. I don't give a shit. I'm sharing it freely with my friends, using Facebook as a tool. It goes both ways.
Maybe (and maybe not) you are clueless, because maybe (and maybe not) you miss the whole point, or maybe (or maybe not) I am mistaken!!!
Well... aren't you open to possibilites?
I guess I am!
