這幾天一則「隱私聲明」病毒式地在Facebook上傳播，內容為保護個人資料免於未經授權的使用。但請注意，此隱私聲明是假的！
這則聲明在Facebook公告新版隱私準則後開始散播。內文的起頭說道，「為回應新版Facebook準則我在此聲明，一切關於我的個人資訊、插圖、圖片、繪畫、照片、與影片等皆為本人版權所有。若要將以上內容用於商業用途，需經本人書面同意，絕無例外」。文中並指出任何人皆可複製此段文字並張貼於自己的Facebook頁面，以禁止Facebook「以用戶個人檔案或發文內容為依據揭露、複製、發佈、傳播、或進行任何不利用戶的行為」。
這則通知的構想是源自Facebook如今已成為上市公司，這將為用戶隱私帶來負面影響，然而這並非事實。Facebook及其用戶仍受當初開始使用服務時的同樣條款所規範，並未因公司公開交易而改變，而張貼如此的法律「護身符」在自己的頁面上其實是完全無效的。
以下是該隱私通知的全文：
In response to the new Facebook guidelines I hereby declare that my copyright is attached to all of my personal details, illustrations, graphics, comics, paintings, photos and videos, etc. (as a result of the Berner Convention). For commercial use of the above my written consent is needed at all times!
