Google+: Protecting Your Photo Ownership

One of the most common issues with Facebook is its policy with photo ownership. Many people have been upset because once a picture is uploaded, they can no longer claim intellectual property ownership over them.

So basically, everything that you upload to Facebook belongs to Facebook until you delete it.

However, Google+ respects your intellectual property. Here is an image that shows what I mean:

In my opinion, respecting our intellectual property over our data gives Google points over Facebook.

There has been discourse on the possibility that Facebook is destined to disappear with the rise of Google+ but I do not agree with this completely. In my opinion, this only means a slip in the usage of a social network that does not respect its users and their digital ownership of photos and videos.

This is the Google+ flipping profile picture. It is not big deal, but it is an amazing feature that Google+ offers. You only need to have more than 1 Profile picture in order to make it work as in the following video.

Enjoy!
