You maintain ownership of everything you share on Diaspora, giving you full control over how it's distributed.does this imply that a photo uploaded to somewhere like facebook then becomes the ownership of facebook or something, can someone explain further please.Yup - facebook claim ownership of it.Well then YOU are illegally attempting to transfer copyright you don?t own to someone else. The copyright does not transfer. Unless you upload things you own in which case you transfer it to Facebook.what happens if its released under a creative commons share alike attribute license with this clearly stated on a cd lable (copied rugby photos to dvd adn stuck a lable with the creative commons logo to the cd, also included the appropriate license as a file on the cd. if a p hoto is then uploaded to somewhere like facebook how does that affect the cc license.The creative commons license should be enough - I don?t know if its been tried in a court case...thanksl it may help me, if i need to make it explicit and say these photos CANNOT be uploaded to facebook due to . or should i do this anyway.paulIANAL Tom te tom te tom
You can ask them to remove it, then you can ask Facebook to remove them from their archive, telling them that the person who posted them had not right to upload them in the first place.
Whether the original uploader or facebook do anything is up to them, and your choices are somewhat limited at that point. (And can become expensive)
