Comment Posted Items (Score 1) 426

Does this clause include Posted Items (that Facebook is now calling "Links")? i.e if I post an article on my wall, or perhaps a piece of music hosted elsewhere, is facebook claiming the right to redistribute and/or sell it at will? And if so, doesn't that contradict existing copyright laws?

Comment Re:Third cut? (Score 1) 655

Is it just me, or are the implications of this fiber cut being greatly exaggerated. I was able to traceroute to an IP in Iran with no problem. Perhaps the lights have gone out for a large portion of the population, but their local hosting services are still up. (and yes, I checked to ensure that the server was physically in Iran and not hosted elsewhere) It's my understanding that the goal of something like the Internet is to have no single point of entry, so if one major fiber goes out, you still have alternate routes in place.
