Melbourne, February 19 : Facebook is trying to woo back abandoning members after it made changes to its user Terms of Service (TOS) that have now been reversed.
The social-networking giant had come under fire after Consumer advocacy blog The Consumerist reported that the revised policy allowed the website to hold a perpetual license to use its members' uploaded content to promote itself, even after their accounts had been deleted.
Following the firestorm, the free-access site is now displaying an apology for the reorganized TOS, saying the changes made were a "mistake".
Facebook further assured its users that they held the ownership of material posted by them, reports News. com. au.
