Facebook Terms of Service Change Rapidly Turns Into a PR Nightmare

Talk about a snowball effect. Since Consumerist posted the article about Facebook’s subtle change of terms over the weekend, users have begun lashing out about it and is now sparking a formal complaint to the FTC. We saw similar complaints filed during Facebook’s infamous Beacon fiasco back at the end of 2007, although one class action suit wasn’t filed until August of last year.

One group, “People Against the new Terms of Service (TOS)“, has been at the forefront of the backlash although the group doesn’t appear to be gaining a ton of traction beyond the 58,000 members that have joined it.
