Honestly, who has actually seen Instagram pictures that didn't involve Paulina Gretzky?

First this is being made out way worse than it is:

What you are going to get is sponsored stories sent back to you like, buy a digital photo frame and the ad will have one of your instagram photo's in it.

So they're revising their service agreement to make it clear exactly what is and isn't allowed and remove the offensive bits. The same thing happened with Pinterest a few months ago, where their service agreement was amended to state that they had intellectual property rights to everything that their users pinned. Which is ridiculous, since people are pinning things images that don't even belong to them in the first place. Of course, they had to backtrack on it in a matter of hours and blame it on their lawyers.

Honestly, any company that attempts to claim property-rights over user-posted images is asking for trouble, because they'll never be able to verify that the person posting it had intellectual property rights over it in the first place.

If anyone still cares (now that they've made fun of hipsters), Instagram's backed down.

Not instagram, but this kinda flows in the same direction . . .

No one is immune from the occasional privacy snafu on Facebook, not even Mark Zuckerberg’s sister.

She mistakenly believed it was a photo from Randi and posted it to Twitter.

Randi has since deleted her tweets blasting Schweitzer, but BuzzFeed has screen caps of the whole thing.
