- MichaelApproved 15y agoI don't believe that's true. Can you cite one service that does this?
- martinpannier 15y agoThe TwitPic debacle recently—TwitPic changed their TOS to state that TwitPic could sell their users' pictures without authorization from or revenue sharing with, said user. So, TwitPic?
- adestefan 15y agoTwitPic doesn't strip your copyright. Their TOS states that you grant them the right to sell the image uploaded to them, but you still hold the original copyright. It was clearly described in the linked article.
- martinpannier 15y agoI think the question was whether there were sites which stripped you of your copyright privileges, not of your copyright. I've argued elsewhere in the thread that these services cannot strip your copyright. However, if you give a license to a website to profit from your content, I think we can agree that the website stripped you from your copyright privileges (at least a big part of them).
