I think another problem is that Facebook can apparently change the terms at
any time.

My God!  Here are the terms which I swear have changed since the last time I
checked them:

"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 privacy <http://www.facebook.com/privacy/> and application
settings <http://www.facebook.com/editapps.php>: 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). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your
account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not
deleted it."

I am immediately deleting all of my photos on Facebook and will not post any
more.
