From the always entertaining Robert Scoble.
Truth is it doesn’t matter.
If you are uploading your content to, and participating online with, you are giving a HUGE amount of ownership to services that, well, you really don’t control.
They can go out of business. They can delete your account. They can make money off of your content. They probably all have wacky stuff in their terms of services.
This is true for Flickr. For YouTube. For Twitter. For Facebook. For all of them.
I’ve been yelling and screaming about how Facebook has been treating its customers for a year now. Facebook already showed how they treat you by the way they delete accounts: they have complete control and you have none.
That’s a lot to think about.
