Since the early days of online social networking, people have struggled with what is the right amount of info to share online. Should you put up pictures of yourself doing keg stands with your frat buddies? Should you update your relationship status to tell everyone that you're totally in love with Cheetos? Most people threw cyber-caution to the wind and put up whatever the hell they felt like.

But now, according to Facebook's new Terms of Service (as first noticed by the Consumerist blog), everything that you've ever posted belongs to the site, forever -- and can be reused in advertisements or other media even if you decide to remove that content from your active profile (or delete your profile entirely). Facebook's founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg tried to reassure users yesterday in a blog post, saying that Facebookers "own and control their information," but he also refused to revise the new terms.

Questions Raised:
Even though our profiles are mostly free of nude pictures and "sooo wasted" blog posts, what of all the poor, indiscreet teengers who are currently coming of age on Facebook? Should they be haunted by their youthful status updates forever?

UPDATE: Facebook has reverted back to its original terms of service. The Internet wins!
