Doubtless their pallid, unctuous shills think it's A OK.

Again.

"Three months after they acquired Instagram, Facebook launches a completely audacious intellectual property rights grab. Unless you delete your Instagram account by the January 16 deadline, they claim the right to license any public Instagrams uploaded after that date “without any compensation to you,” in perpetuity…and you can’t opt out.
As Declan McCullagh notes, this not only means that Facebook could sell your Hawaii travel shots without your permission. The shining faces of your kids could also show up in advertising without your approval, as could yours if you wander into someone’s Instagram shot unbeknownst…which raises significant privacy concerns."
