Facebook has agreed to let a third party advertiser use your posted pictures without your permission - www.allfacebook.com

This morning, I got an incoming forwarded email from a personal friend with the message:
All,

I don't know how to forward this using FB, so I forward this via email.

Ok, I just had to google for 'Facebook has agreed to let a third party advertiser use your posted pictures without your permission.' to check the fact.

The truth (taken from 'Viral Facebook Message Brings Issue Of Ad Endorsements Into Spotlight'):
Facebook continues to let third party ad networks use your photos as well, and making the privacy setting changes outlined in this viral message will not remove your photos from third party ad networks.
