“Facebook vergisst nun nichts mehr”, haben wie gestern noch gemeldet. Nach heftigem Aufschrei der Blogosphäre und der Facebook-Community rudert Facebook-Gründer Mark Zuckerberg zurück. Im Firmenblog erklärt er: Over the past couple of days, we received a lot of questions and comments about the changes and what they mean for people and their information. Based on this feedback, we have decided to return to our previous terms of use while we resolve the issues that people have raised. (…) Going forward, we’ve decided to take a new approach towards developing our terms. We concluded that returning to our previous terms was the right thing for now. As I said yesterday, we think that a lot of the language in our terms is overly formal and protective so we don’t plan to leave it there for long. So schnell kann das gehen. In diesem Fall ist die Gefahr also zunächst abgewendet. Das grundlegende Problem Datenschutz vs Datamining wird uns in den kommenden Monaten und Jahren noch häufiger beschäftigen. Bis dahin aber: Frohes Posten auf Facebook! (via mashable)
