No, your Facebook account belongs to Facebook. The content you post belongs to you with distribution rights granted to Facebook. Additionally free speech is protected from the government's interference, nothing is in the Constitution about protection from private enterprises.
- rmc 15y agoDepends. In some regions with data protection/personal data laws (e.g. the EU), there it is clear that some data is "personal data", and hence is, legally, treated differently. You cannot do whatever you want with personal data that people send to you (after you set up a website collecting it). It doesn't matter what distribution rights a company does, they are still bound by the law.
- readme 15y agoI came here just for this comment.
- signalsignal 15y agoThanks for the validation. I don't know if it is the blog-spam that infests all of these types of forums, or if it that people really think a for-profit corporation owes them free stuff in perpetuity. PR people, though, call me "cynical" ;)
