I can't believe I'm defending Facebook though. A company who's data-mining practices completely creep me out. I definitely try to reduce the reach of their tentacles into my life but in this case I see nothing to take issue with.
- slavik81 9y agoThe patent clause applies to all patents, not just software patents.
- sandGorgon 9y agoNobody is denying this. The real problem actually is the other way around. If Facebook infringes on your IP, you still can't do anything about it..at the risk of losing patent cover. Im really not sure how it can be worded to let legitimate lawsuits through. But that is the problem. Tomorrow if you build a new AI algorithm on caffe2, FB can pretty much use the whole code and you would be bound by the patent clauses.
