Facebook to Users: You Have Exactly 7 Days Until We Own You

 


In connection with a class action settlement, Facebook last week made "proposed" changes to its data use policy and statement of rights and responsibilities. In an official announcement, Facebook published the revisions alongside the original text in attempt to be clearer on how the social network uses the information shared on Facebook.
While the court settlement had Facebook agreeing to "provide greater disclosure and transparency as to when and how member's names and profile pictures are re-published, and to give them additional control over those events," the official Facebook announcement gave users exactly seven days from August 29 to provide feedback on what they saw by leaving comments on the post. After the holiday weekend, today is Day 6.
