A facebook post has been going viral unfortunately, and recently, for all the wrong motives. Facebook has eventually issued a statement calling the post forgery.

Facebook has requested its users to not to consider the junk post and that users “possess all of the content and advice you post on Facebook”.

You can see Secrecy Principles to learn more about who sees what you share on other issues and Facebok.

The Facebook statement reads:

“You may have seen a post telling you to copy and paste a notice to retain control over things you share on Facebook. Don’t believe it. Our terms say clearly: You own all of the content and information you post on Facebook, and you can control how it’s shared through your privacy and application setting. That’s how it works, and this hasn’t changed.

You can even read the Data Policy to learn what information we gather and how it’s used and shared. We need you to be educated and in control of your expertise on Facebook.”

It’s not the first time. The most recent junk warned users that the user’s pictures, post, tips might be used by Facebook, from both previous and current and said that by setting the place on the timeline one is refusing Facebook permission to do any of the above said things.

The full post reads:

“I do not give Facebook or any entities associated with Facebook permission to use my pictures, information, or posts, both past and future. By this statement, I give notice to Facebook it is strictly forbidden to disclose, copy, distribute, or take any other action against me based on this profile and/or its contents. The content of this profile is private and confidential information. The violation of privacy can be punished by law (UCC 1-308- 1 1 308-103 and the Rome Statute).
NOTE: Facebook is now a public entity. All members must post a note like this. If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you do not publish a statement at least once it will be tactically allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in the profile status updates. DO NOT SHARE. copy and paste.”
