The change is minor but has large implications for online networking. Should Facebook has ownership rights over what you post or upload onto their website or do you remain the ultimate owner of your content?

Facebook content owner's rights
Facebook has been taking some heat over the past week for a slight change in their terms of use statement. They changed the terms from "Facebook could not claim any rights to original content that a user uploaded once the user closed his or her account." to ""You may remove your User Content from the Site at any time. ... (H)owever, you acknowledge that the Company may retain archived copies of your User Content."

I think facebook does a good job of responding to user concerns. However, the reversal is temporary so it will be interesting to see how this policy is reinstated.
