That sums it up perfectly. As a webmaster dealing with copyright photos, once I post one of our photos into a newsgroup, I lose exclusive rights. The photo enters the public domain and I have lost control of any use of the picture.

When any of us post to a MB, we no longer control what we've shared. And trying to is a little like Alysa Milano's crazy mother threatening to sue every celeb website for posting her daughter's tit pics.

If you don't want your tits on the internet, then don't show them in public; if you don't want cops to see your grow, then don't post them on a MB. Simple.
