Where have I been whilst this has been happening? xD
FUCK
TUBERS!
Nice to see you back in all your glory!
Shnoice.
2nd… hehe… hate doin’ this but I couldn’t resist :) I’ll have to watch this clip over again. Lessons learned here. Not just related to the FB issue but elsewhere as well. Thanks loads for the post RB :) Oh yeah, good to see Joanne’s right hand’s getting better :)
Twelfth! Heh.
Isn’t the bigger story that someone actually read the terms and conditions of a website.
very cool, great video
Nice try Facebook, I removed all my content and it’s staying off.
You’re very smart…
Too bad it’s all cached in their database lol…
cut the string attached to tiy thought prosses that has the word zionest feed , you’ll feel better ,with in days , if not your just a cont
Don’t get in if you can’t get out?
That’s what she said…
Good and informative video. Rocketboom is awesome!
apparently facebook is owned by the CIA and he reason they keep your stuff even after you “delete” your account is so the gov’t can keep tabes on your details…for some reason….
good video. 5/5
Well done. This is an example of excellent journalism. Smart and funny keep up the great work.
they have everything backed up, they own every picture put up there also.
they can sell your picture and use it in ads and use your information
A widely spread misbelief!!! You do not need to copyright your works. The law says so. And thousands of people who thought they could just take property that does not seem to be protected, payed a lot of money. In fact you do not even need to be sued. A simple cease-and-desist letter causes tremendous trouble - and usually costs money…. loads of money!
…maybe I should add: One of my friends had tp pay - and he was lucky, because it was only 1000 EUR (for only one picture).
What is the big deal here? Why use such a website in the first place?
for losers who waste their time socializing
they even trying to net mobile fone users. i think there is a new facebook fone called the INQ. if they cant stick a chip under your skin then they will put them in the gadgets evryone needs to use
ahhahahahahaha bye
they retracted their TOS.
**XBOX 360 4 FREE** LEGIT
tinyurl . com / 5vdwv6 (delete spaces)
have to start making our own gadgets again then =3
Great video. Clear concise and very informative
Joanne is so smart. I’m going to ask my girlfriend for a termination clause now.
Proof?
Thank you for such an informative video rocketboom :D
lol 1:16
lmfao
At the end she is so right
This woman is gorgeous why isn’t she married? Oh well its her prerogative. Still she’s a 10!!!
I love this woman.
This is not the first time Facebook has tried to fuck with the rights of its users.
I don’t trust them and I don’t use them.
I think internet anonymity will become more and more prevalent. With the economic conditions as they are, and the technologies we currently have available to us, a genuinely significant counter-economy is likely to blossom thanks to the internet and the wonders of cryptography. People are sick of all the bullshit, and now people actually have a means to circumvent taxation, government fiat, and other artificial economic boundaries. Maybe you could do an episode on crypto-anarchism.
Intellectual property is bull crap. Copyright laws are a great evil (according to my own subjective definition thereof).
look it up. it’s not hard to find :) for starters put “facebook, CIA” in the search
You are a fool.
jesus was a ufo
haha love the “Facebook: all your content are belong to us” lol
more like “That’s what She said!” lol lol
0:40 lol xD
“You’re doing it wrong”
Looks like the cancer has spread further than I imagined. Now even females think they can spout memes.

MOST helpful…thanks Joanie.
fuck, the internet is scary.
Care to elaborate genius?
Is that what the LSD told you?
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttttttttttccccccccccccch
Im saying fuck you, Straight up, You mother fuckers RAT OUT SO MANY ACCOUNTS ILL KNOCK YOU THE FUCK OUT IN PERSON
We got “in” when the TOS were different
I don’t see how they can just change them
Heh. I like the way Rocket Boom uses memes to deliver news. Very nice.
Not really sure I’m ok with that!! better ask my friends met on ==== Agelessmate.c om ==== know what? I do think people I met there are hot and sincere! Desipte the actual so-called Age Gap, we get along together splendidly!! and I’m even thinking about romance there!! lol
Cmon peoples wake up !
thanks Joanne! I’m quitting facebook now, had enough already with other problems like bad tagging system etc and now this. bye2 facebook
you need deepthroating!

I still like FB for networking and such, but I have since deleted all of the artwork I had in my albums. I still have not reposted anything, nor will I in the future, thanks to this scare. I will still be a subscriber, but won’t post any more original stuff I own the copyright to on this site anymore.
they can change the rules because you agreed that they could when you signed up, it is in their TOS that they reserve the right to alter the agreement at any time, or some such, which when you think about it makes the whole thing a scam, it just goes to show how much more power the corps have in the legal system than us, and they are not even elected, make themselves unaccountable etc. It is all pants, we need to smash up this rip off, anti social corp. crap which the repugnicans loved so much.
[removed]
DREW LIKE THIS COMMENT??????
what the fuck am I doing here!!!!
at least clean up the retards and throw them off your site
its FUCKING DISGUSTING MAN FUCKING DISGUSTING
Probably a Jewish American.
Thanks for removing hapcimorgo’s disgusting comment. Now that it’s gone, you can remove my comment about the moron’s comment.
FCBK is doing exactly what is expected. If not now, maybe later in time. Nothing is fcbk’s fault. The problem is with sad people spending all of their lives in it and publishing all of their provate information just to play it cool and to prove other’s of their extraordinary social life…..sad…
I have a facebook account. I also think this babe is, well a BABE. I’d tap that ANYDAY! :D
Very informative Joanne, thanks!
Apparatus for allowing your cat to agree to TOS:
http://www.boingboing.net/2009/02/17/apparatus-for-allowi.html
“…I created a cardboard platform with a long thin protrusion for pressing the spacebar, which is sufficient to activate most onscreen buttons. Next, I carefully place it over the keyboard of my computer. Finally, I lure Simba over the cardboard platform with the promise of petting. N Success!! He presses the button of his own free will. Admittedly, he was coerced and rewarded, but really, nobody forced my cat to step on the button and become party to a software license agreement. At the very least, we know he was not under duress. ”
I found the above on BoingBoing and even thought its really funny, its also compelling, in a serious way.
…and what if Simba wrote the next world’s #1 best seller aka The Da Vinci Code? Would cats around the world be ensured a lifetime supply of El Premo katnip? Or would the lawyers be haggling over royalties in the courts for years to come. Speaking of royalties…(hint, hint…)
I’ll be back momentarily.
Good Internet sales idea: a cat hair vacuum cleaner for keyboards.
Fuxk |Facebook—
in the tv news i saw some terms of facebook , someone understand this?
So were Facebook trying to withdraw the ‘exit clause’? They haven’t done it now - or they reversed their decision? So it’s back to what it was - if you leave Facebook then they can no longer use your stuff, pictures/writing etc.? Anyone?
So it’s mainly about people posting original content to FB? The beginning part confused me a little - ISPs track every website you go to? (They’ll have a lot of youtube hits from me :D ) but is that data kept!?! Anyone??
that’s sort of what i was trying to get at … it’s such crap! i mean, they could put something like: join & it be free & blah blah blah
then change the TOS to something completely absurd like give me your first baby
obbbbviously not that extreme, but ya get me ;)
Tubers beware!

b-man, that Figaro / hair-monster video is hilarious!
I wonder if this Figaro is available on Facebook for that big, stressful, beat-the-Joneses ‘add’? Oops, FB would then own Seville, probably.
Hey Mike, tell Drew to clean up some of those tuber comments
[removed]
Oh Drew …
Thank you! I bought you a beer for that but had to drink it myself since you aren’t here!
At least Facebook LISTENED to the complaints from the userbase and revoked it. Livejournal has pulled shit like this again and again and they constantly ignore when their userbase protests. Still, this makes me kinda glad I don’t have a Facebook at all.
you call her a retard but yet fail to explain why.
You sir, are the retard.
Thats the main reason i deleted my account like 2 days after creating it, i knowed it was bullshit anyway so i never used it
FaceBook is a headache!
Glad I terminated my account a long time ago, and never put anything substantial up there!
wow that sucks, so if i make a really good song and post it on facebook i wont be famous, but facebook will make millions off it. BULLSHIT.
but im still gonna use it
she’s so british. fantastic.
thankyou :D
tht explained alot.
VincentSinclair translated- I am too fucking stupid to think and so I am going to yell and scream like a child does when they are frightened by something they do not understand.
Lately I saw a lot of people on myspace asking people to facebook them. Sounds cool, but I really don’t like its interface. And I have to agree when some people says that orkut is atractive when it comes to navigating. Never used facebook that much, so I’ve terminated my account there.
The Myspace fad is over everyone
Facebook is so easy to “hack”, just change some numbers around on an address bar and you can look at anyone’s private profile’s photos. I was at the grocery store last week and it showed the cashier’s full name at the bottom of the receipt - i typed this into facebook badda-bing badda-boom, private bikini pics!
Myspace has had a LOT more pressure over the years, and thus takes a lot of effort to hack (or rather it’s impossible to get into private profiles unless the victim is a complete idiot)
“No one can profit from your content without your approval”… right… except for eBaum… http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/276616
well said and absolutly correct!!! anyhows they wont be abe to make anything out of my prifile as its for fun! the real life I live and face book is for fun! for those who thing that beeing online is real life should reconsider and do something fro there life coz I think its poor to live a life on the net when all is out there….life is there live it!
one of many reasons I have not joined facebook and never will
Shes hot
She is so pritty
shes beautiful, good video, clarifying
Good video. I have a Facebook account but don’t know much about the ToS.
one of the gems of youtubia
Wooo these vids are getting hardcore

your a pervert…
check out my tracks and subscribe wen you get time,hopefully you’ll like all of em,if you do rate them!thanks i appreciate it pplz!
whiners
so professional, the video…
the best ;)
People had a right to start a sh**storm over it.
Lets say you are borrowing your neighbors garage to put your car in, how would you feel if suddenly the neighbor claims ownership on your car?
Most of the people that were effected were people having all ready agreed to the old terms and got a new one rammed up their nostrils. Both stated changes could be made to it freely, which is completely ludicrous and makes one wonder why anyone would want facebook in the first place.
i agree. good one.
putnik
What if i put child porn on facebook? would they get in trouble?
Hey narrator, please check Dyshidrosis on the pedia. I wrote a home treatment to eczema
With all due respect, this pedantry is getting annoying: the ‘right to’ … and ’should be able to’ is a completely different matter. Who says so? Theoretically they are but practically the don’t. Consider ‘might makes right’. Facebook is the living proof of it.
SHOULD I LEAVE FACEBOOK????
yet go to myspace ;)
.. Blablabla. ZzzzzzZzz.
Yes.
mmmm pancakes
i want 2 leave but i dont
I donno… is it just me who sits and waits for her to take her shirt off?
i dnt use facebook much. have’ t used it in 9months
no!
good
wtf? this video got over 32 470 views in 19 hours? lol lmfao XD
gin tonic…..
oh crap, whatever
and how does this affect me?
i dont have any intellectual, (nor intelect for that matter) to be stolen… as a matter of fact they can only get dumber and more confused by gattering info about me.
Hey guys!! I found their spokesperson!!
This illustrates the signal to noise ratio problem as applied to internet data and this comments section.
food for fodder
clearly!
haha
Very nicely done!!
Boycott!!!!
who cares
Facebook needs more sex
I almost cared
Google….!!!! what are you waiting to make a social network website to get rid of facebook ?
haha im view 39,000 on the dot
I’ve just masturbated. Does that count as sex?
hahahahaha stupid shit
Extremely helpful explanation. I am reposting to my blog. Good job!!
Cheers,
Connie
A little bit like Hotel California/Church of satan…-once you´re in you can never get out.!
I f you think about joining Facebook…think again!
You cleared that up succinctly. Thanks.
europeans are so hot.
same
hey, so am I… I’m 39,000 too… that’s odd…
no…im 39.000 viewer!
im 39.000 too11
Is this some sort of outreach program or something? Why not get system that require registration to post?
Maybe appoint as moderator whoever deleted some of my choice posts.
Yeah I am view 44,817!!!!!!
That chick his HOOOOTTTTTTT
im the next one :D
yeah im the 44,817 viewer. . . . yeah. . . .
it says im the 44,817 viewer to lol
Why not use facebook for what it’s for; networking and keeping in touch. Don’t post your lame poetry or pictures that you don’t want others to own. Wow. Problem solved. I don’t blame facebook, I blame millions of cry-baby facebookers who think laws and rights should only ever work in their favor.
ya i’m 44,817 viewer and i think this chicks is hot
I am 44,817 too… WTF?
It’s not just about copyrights; with the updated TOS, Facebook can use your personal information (address, phone number, name) as well as demographics like your music tastes, movie prefrences or favourite brands to sell to advertisers. Forever!
44,817 viewer too, wtf?
BTW FACEBOOK SUCKS
Im 44,817 too…..WTH???????????
lol were all the same viewer ?:P
God she’s so sexy :D *drool*
I’m the 51,368 and i want to first jump around and sing merry had a little lamp and then want to sleep with this sexy chick
I never trusted Facebook so “deleted” my account a year ago.
Who in the right mind would show his/her telephone number , address , etc. ???
i could listen to you forever, the way u speak is amazing i dont know what it is lmfao.
this chick is hot - she reminds me my dog, dobermann i had once. i could kiss her nose as well
Also 51,368
I’ve banged her back in college
So “tubers” is an Internet meme referring to clueless users a la our illustrious Senator Ted Stevens?
Is she deaf? She sounds like a deaf person who’s learned to talk.
What the * does this hacker use.. I know how to use dos… and some of it’s commands.
So.. you fill in an IP.. than it’s firewall I supose.. or a program that can brake it.
bitch! what the fuck do you think you are saying! She’s british you dipshit!
uhh your explanation makes no sense
hope facebook gets hit hard as a punishment for making such bullcrap term of service
At 1:03 are shown the lockets attached to the pylons of ponte Milvio in Rome (…that is Italy’s Rome)
A mainstream way for feeble-minded teens to propitiate a long lasting relationship.
This “tradition” started a couple of years ago and stopped last year when one of the pylons broke.
The municipality decided then to spend some money to fix the pylons and take the lockets away.
All’s well what ends well.
Sadly had to i stop going there. There used to be more girls and less junkies.
LOL THE LAST SENTENCE SHE SAYS IN THE VID!! The only response i have to that is: THATS WHAT SHE SAID!!!
LOL THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING.
“bitch”! I know where she’s from “bitch”. I’m from the same place “bitch”. Don’t need a Canadian to tell me she’s british “bitch”. She still sounds like a deaf and dumb person trying to talk. “bitch”.
Last!
I love this girl to pieces she’s so sweet.
It all comes down to capitalism, hey. People want to make money by selling their stuff, and if some website has ownership of their stuff, the people who made the stuff can’t make money! But it looks like capitalism is going through some changes now, so maybe when we come out of this tunnel in which we’re presently in, people’s “It’s mine!” attitude may change to, “It’s ours.”
Nice blouse.
who cares
OFF TO MYSPACE!
Might be best to find a social networking site that is based in a nation with stronger privacy laws? Otherwise I dont see how switching to myspace is going to help… I am pretty sure its also American.
Why is it I have trouble focusing on the subject, and keep imagining being underneath that desk while she records this?
fuck u facebook
as a way to protest I encourage everyone not to sign in on facebook for two weeks, by deactivating your account. Once you reactivate your account all your content and friend list should still be there, that’s fucked. Even after you leave, facebook keeps all your data stored… which now that I think it’s not a bad idea, meaning you don’t have to upload everything again when you change your mind after you had deactivated your account…
“who cares”
You must — cos you responded! Ohohoh!
Us, FailBlog Are Back! :)
OMG… who cares?! This is such a small issue. Protesting against it is stupid.
i dont get it, so does facebook have ownership to your content regardless if you terminate your account or not?
Facebook is selling our information to corporations. This is all part of gathering information, and also ready for the NEW WORLD ORDER in 2012. Illuminati are behind all of this shit, why can’t people just wake up. Please do some research, EVERYONE is a powerful being, we have our OWN minds, why the fuck should we listen to media outlets which try to brainwash us at a subconscious level? WE ARE EXTREMELY powerful. Do not try brainwashing us, fuck the government and fuck the Illuminati.
they are taking my contect and compressing it for the future
fuck you facebook .
2012 is just some fucking astronomical shit, dammit, and the illuminati is really bullshit. Yes facebook is shit, and is facist and the goverment sucks we all know that.
I am wearing yesterday´s socks.
P33N0, firstly thank you for not being abusive to me. Please do more research about the Illuminati, they are the Rothschild, who are the bankers. They own more than the words money put together, over 500 trillion. There is no need for a monetary system. There is something called The Venus Project which can change lives, NO MONEY is involved. It explains how everything will work fine since this might raise questions in your head. Please believe it man, there is just too much hard proof & evidence
It’s like hotel california. “You can sign in any time you like, but you can never leave”
this all seems very interesting. where can i find information on this?
End of that video deserves a that’s what she said.
Jordan, you are awesome! You are clearly showing that you are not afraid to think outside the box or an ignorant person. You can start by watching videos by “NufffRespect” type his name on YouTube. You can also type in Illuminati. You will eventually find yourself finding out so much information that you will realise how bad everything is and how many people our government kill just to make people believe that more security is needed. Thanks man, you are awesome. Feel free to PM me for help.
such as?
maybe
they are in there final stage with only a few steps left only two things left to do..
1…. crag your anckles and kiss your ass goodbye.
2… wake up and see the truth before your eyes this is happening what are going to do..

Thanks I finally agree what all the fuss was about…hope this doesn’t happen
since i’m a dedicated Facebook user! lol
nic3
thank god i don’t have facebook.
I checked them out as far as their retarded ‘advance fee fraud’ home page - expects U 2 sign up just 2 browse. Clearly, N E 1 pathetic enough 2 agree 2 those terms & sign up is not N E 1 I wanna’ meet! No facebook 4 meeee! (ever)
Now, if they @ least let U browse B 4 ’signing up’, then MAYBE I would become a member. It’s just another of those scam companies 2 get U as a marketing target - not a ‘community’. It’s like those ‘dating’ (spam feeder) sites with ‘compatibility surveys’ HAHAHA
WHO wants a free subscriber just comment anything nice in my channel (not a scam)
One, the way you type is extremely annoying.
Two, you have clearly never been on facebook, or you would be aware that it is a place where you can talk to your friends, it doesn’t “match” you up with people like a dating site.
Three, yes the new terms and conditions aren’t fair but your reasons for joining are just stupid.
Honestly, unless you idiotically post (for example) poems that you wrote and are later on planning to publish, or have photos of yourself posted that you don’t want anyone to see, this isn’t such a big deal.
It’s easy, i don’t use this kind of sites…
And I’m still alive :)
post this message on 10 videos or else your mom will die in 4 hours.
sorry. i read this by accident
the only reason why i like my FB acct is because of the publishings i get from the groups that I join. most of them are copyrighted anyways, but this was a big issue. I have too many other ways of staying in touch with my friends. Other than being a 2 week high school reunion, FB serves me no purpose but to waste time reading mindless dribble, I mean “minifeeds”.
[...] UPDATE: Hey, how cool is this? Little ol me and this blog post was added to a video new report on RocketBoom.com [...]
ALL UR FACE R BELONG TO US!!!!
Ha ha
You´re pretty cool and have a great sense of humor, i think! :-)
Lots of Bla…bla…bla…
please watch this wake up call video! it might guilt trip you…
watch?v=G9jY0SaNuBY
or go to my channel
plz pass it on, trying to get as many ppl to watch, thanks
why the American goverment give up support the china GuoMingDang PARTY in 1949,why why why why???if the China Community party army use the neclear weapons attack America , millions of America people will
be killed. I come from Taiwan ,I am the GuoMingDang PARTY number.
so, even if you opened your account way back when facebook started (oldschool, i kno B]), you’d still be subject to new terms? If so, shouldn’t they give an option to these people to bail out before the new terms come into effect?
1/5
this girl acted along Sasha Baron Cohen in Ali G in da House…nice knickers ;) keep it real!
Do you have a twin sister who could agree to mary a ugly man (broke) with a heavy French accent ?
Good vid.
awesome :)
Why are people still using facebook? They have been nothing but trouble from the beginning. Again and again they push the boundaries on what’s legal and ethical about their users, and they don’t do what it otherwise common behavior until enough of a stir has been created. They simply cannot be trusted. It’s not like it’s that great anyway. It’s always been hideously slow.
In Norway, new laws aren’t retrospective - I don’t know about American(?)-based companies like Facebook, though.
so hot :)
Wonder!!!!
Check my video!!
Check my video!!
Good luck guys =)

Facebook’s mama is so fat you could miss a season of Simpsons when she walked past the telly.

I’d pee in her butt.

Do you like chocolate? If you are from UK you can get free Cadbury samples! Go to ww w .freestuffsite. org /cadbury (delete spaces).
I have no idea what she just said but she is so hot she can lecture me on anything anytime!
fabulous info!
I’ve been thinking of getting a facebook page. Do you think I still should after this?
Okay, I don’t get it
what exactly is it in FB’s TOS that people are unhappy about?
oh comeon. wherever you register they use your data. thats the internet.
FAIL
This video is excellent! Clearly written, cleverly and intelligently presented. How refreshing!
i dont get it
I don’t get what was the difference between the new and old ToS, though. Facebook already saved all your data if you “unregistered”!
I like Myspace more anyways!!!!
myspace seems more immature to me, facebooks just simple
this is a great video! Facebook is going toooooooo far !(in my opinion)
i agree, you don’t have to deal with stupid layouts and stuff on facebook
ORKUT FTW
There is no point of using facebook. This website do not provide the services it was intended for anymore.

Attention Teenager,
The public school will not teach you this. The government will not teach it. But there is a message that you need to know. A message so important that it can change the rest of your life. Check out my video called THE LONG TRIP to see what it is. Your future depends on it!
Awesome!! That was amazing! haha I thought it was really interesting. Absolutely enjoyed it!
Why don’t you listen before typing.
damn she is a hottie
I believe “hording” is a misspell. Yikes.
Damn that Facebook….
“if you can’t get out, maybe you shouldn’t get in in the first place”
that’s what she said.
what was that? i never seen someone do that beforethat was hilarious… i didnt see that one comming haha [=
i love it when people correct grammar, they always use capital letters, full stops and punctuation
penis
the fact that Facebook change their TOS back so quickly is an indication that they knew they were wrong in the first place
Well done,
id do baaaaaad things to her!
lolz facebook fails.
onleh 2 peepz wit no fwiends
Actually, full stops are part of correct punctuation, and capital Letters are part of correct spelling, in vico, grammar.
:P
OMG
OMG
OMG
OMG
facebook is hilarious. They make their millionth attempt to try and rape your privacy, and then whne people get upset, they say “sorry” and tell them they are changing back. It funny that people still use that site.
Collegemosh. com is better, and it doesnt rape your privacy.
I am saddened that we need to continually remind people of common snese.
brilliant. Thanks for the info.
I too found it useful and informative witha great ending statement.
What if your friend posts a picture and you tag yourself in it and you really like that picture. And then they close their Facebook page, and that picture is no longer available. Wouldn’t that suck? You’re in the picture, so you partially have ownership of it. This is where Facebook steps in and says, we’re going to keep the picture on our servers so all your friends can still look at it. And I think that’s okay.
It’s good to know someone is taking notice, hopefully other companies and organisations won’t try it on like Facebook did. Nice one Rocketboom!
Until a picture of you gets posted that you happen to not like, say it’s you in a bad way, and you don’t want it on the web. Or someone has a picture of you doing something with someone that you wanted to keep a secret, or that reveals something embarrassing about you. you’d want that picture gone, right? Well too bad, Facebook will keep it.
they changed it
they aren’t doing that anymore
Eventually you’re stuck with the inevitable realization that your life is not your own. If other people are posting pictures of you that you don’t like, just have them take them down and remove the tag of you in the photo. I do believe that Facebook did this to improve the quality of their service, not to make money or exploit you. If your friends post pictures of you doing stuff you don’t want others to know about, you still can’t delete the picture. So I don’t understand your argument.

You don’t have any ownership to a photograph in which you appear; the photographer is the owner. You have the right to not have your likeness used for financial gain without your approval, but you don’t own the photo in any way.
Now when people keep asking me - are you on facebook - I can send them a link to explain clearly why not.
People misunderstand copyright, but this video explains it well. It is not the ownership of your life. It is the commercial use of your work to make profit for a corporation that has fooled you into donating it to them… forever.
Heh heh heh, RocketBoom now owns all your comments, watch out NeutralDice, that smiley face is mine!

Wow I just discovered Rocketboom today and I’m very impressed, this is well written, humourous and entertaining… sort of like the Daily Show.
