MySpace Changes Terms of Service (Again) After Complaint

Stefanie Olsen writes on the C|Net Media Blog:

Apparently MySpace, the social hot spot for 65 million on the Web, changed, then changed again, its terms and conditions giving it broad rights to the content posted by members even after they removed that content from the Web site, according to a child advocate Web site and a report in The Register.

After a complaint that MySpace had added rights to user material in perpetuity in terms revised in March, parent company News Corp. apparently reversed the decision. Versions of the various terms and conditions can be seen here.

MySpace didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
