Facebook vs. Google - Protecting Intellectual Property and Privacy Rights
Facebook vs. Google - Protecting Intellectual Property and Privacy Rights
Continuing this into a new post from a comment on a previous thread, I shared my opinion .....Facebook will NEVER top Google as they are in two different businesses altogether - social media vs. search. Facebook I predict will become increasingly irrelevant.
Intellectual property, privacy and freedom of speech rights all continue to be trampled under foot, dishonored and disregarded at Facebook. I recently had to contact Facebook because some Nigerian fraudster had taken my photos to create a bogus page of himself to pose as a Christian Minister and solicit people online "friends" made on Facebook for donations.
Thankfully after i completed a complaint form on Facebook (which was extremely hard to find) and Tweeted FB and Sheryl Sandberg, within 24 hours the fraudster's Facebook page using my images (personal images of me taken off from website). Not everyone else finds this process to be so easy. Nobody at Facebook answers the phones (as proven in my video and scenario below).
Facebook deleted all of my videos years ago I uploaded because a couple of them had been negative about a bank and other companies committing consumer fraud. Facebook makes money by selling ads to corporations. That is who they are in bed with and so much so, Facebook deletes its users content that is not favorable to the future corporate buyers.
Google owns YouTube and allows you to upload whatever you want without censorship.
Facebook violates people's privacy, changes the layout of users' Facebook pages without their permission. Alternatively YouTube and Google give you an option to opt out. For example YouTube lets you disable (their new feature in November, 2013) that will make videos uploaded able to be downloaded and remain on someone's computer or mobile device (in the event of power loss - so they say).
In other words Google is more apt to protect users' intellectual property with opt out rights, whereas Facebook just doesn't really care as much.
When I worked for the State Dept. as an intern at the Embassy in Timor Leste (a new nation recognized by the United Nations for 10 years) my job was to contact Facebook and ask them to add Timor Leste to their drop down menu of countries. I could never get anyone at Facebook on the phone. It was an aggravating experience, further revealing Facebook doesn't care about people, just profits and selling ads space.
I got so angry and frustrated with Facebook I made a video about the ordeal:

My sense and feeling is Google will thrive and Facebook will dive. Europe will likely lead the way in achieve global legal reform (as they have in the labeling of GMOs in food) to protect intellectual property and personal privacy.
