Facebook uploads are 'non-commercial' does not hold water.<br>
<br>
Any private individual who
uploads personal photographs to a social media website
will be affected, as most sites require users to warrant that their
uploads do not not infringe the intellectual property rights of any
third party. Anybody using social media to share even private
photographs that include a modern building or streetscape within the
view will be in breach of the warranty and will be at significant legal
risk.<br>
<br>
Also, many websites state in their small print that uploads are
automatically licensed to the site owner under a worldwide non-exclusive
licence for any purpose (even commercial). Uploaders will not be in a
position to grant such a licence, as they will no longer be the sole
copyright owner of their own photographs.<br>
<br>
The relevant clauses in the Facebook legal terms can be found here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms">https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms</a><br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>2.1 For content that is covered by intellectual property
rights, like
photos and videos (IP content), you specifically give us the following
permission, subject to your <a href="https://www.facebook.com/privacy/">privacy</a>
and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=applications">application
settings</a>:
you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable,
royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on
or in connection with Facebook (IP License).</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>5.1 You will not post content or take any action on Facebook
that infringes
or violates someone else's rights or otherwise violates the law.</li>

<p style="padding:0 0 0 0; margin:0 0 0 0;">i've contacted<br>
ŠTEFANEC Ivan <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:ivan.stefanec@europarl.europa.eu"><ivan.stefanec@europarl.europa.eu></a><br>
with some mixed results. <br>
<br>
he believes in press release by pavel svoboda<br>

which says that "of course, facebook photos are non commercial". which<br>
i doubt.<br>
<br>
but after a second email:<br>
<br>
Každopádne je jasné, že presadzujem slobodu šírenia záberov okolia bez<br>
obmedzenia a podľa toho budem aj hlasovať.<br>
<br>
It is evident, that I acitvelly support<br>
freedom of spreading of panorama photos without (any) restrictions and<br>
I will vote according to this.<br>
