Pinterest T's & C's warning

[QueenOfToast]

For those that use Pinterest, I saw this link today that I thought could be of interest to cautious people. I've only just got round to asking for an invitation and now that's put me right off

Ooh, scary...

That is really not good! I think I will abandon pinterest for a while, (it's not that great anyway)

Oh, that is disappointing. I found it a useful way to bookmark things I want to make at some point. Thanks for letting us know.

Gosh that is scary.

I've pinned the red poster. Tricky...

So, I suppose if you click the like button on things, you can then go and look at your "likes" so you can still bookmark things that other people have pinned, but couldn't pin any new content or you'd be responsible for it.

That's a shame...I hit the delete account button I'm afraid

Well, I would be interested to see how these compare with the T&Cs of something like facebook, twitter, youtube, etc, which I suspect are actually pretty similar.

I am not really convinced they require a mass panic especially since there is a follow up post where they have contacted pinterest to get some clarification on the T&C. So I will be waiting to see what the response is from them before I delete my account.
