My God!  Here are the terms which I swear have changed since the last time
I checked them:

"For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos
and videos (IP content), you specifically give us the following permission,
subject to your privacy <http://www.facebook.com/privacy/> and application
settings <http://www.facebook.com/editapps.php>: you grant us a
non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide
license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with
Facebook (IP License). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content
or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they
have not deleted it."

I am immediately deleting all of my photos on Facebook and will not post
any more.
