User provides to the Administration an additional authorisation to modify, shorten and amend his/her Content, to add images, a preamble, comments or any clarifications to his/her Content while using it, and in certain cases based on the Service functions, an authorisation to use User’s Content anonymously.” While FB does repost at will it is never anonymously, at least not that I am aware. The various other services identify themselves and state that they will access or utilize information, to which we generally have the right to approve or decline. Perhaps I am mistaken, but that has been my impression. This idea that our posts and even personal messages might be used for purposes other than which they were designed, and done so anonymously (compensation never having been an issue), is something that is tantamount to plagiarism. Again, perhaps I have misconstrued completely the tone of this, but others who have more experience and a wider knowledge of such things seem to support concerns regarding the highlighted portions of the agreement. We aren't leaving just yet, and we have had the identical comms on DW for some time now. Our presence there will now be a constant rather than just catching up with LJ.
