Go into Facebook’s Privacy Settings, then to “Edit your settings” for “Applications and Websites” (lower left) then “Edit Settings” for “Info accessible through your friends” and remove the checkmark beside “My Photos” and “Photos and videos I’m tagged in”… heck, I’ve removed access to EVERYTHING.

That’ll at least protect your images that you’ve uploaded. Putting that as a usage requirement in your contracts might be a good idea too.

@nick I get the client thing but this allows anyone who happens to be your friend on facebook to print your photos. A picture of your dog, kid or cat.

I think that most people get that by publishing it they are giving people the right to view but apparently labs are now just forgetting that there is an original copyright holder and allowing printing of someone else’s photo by a 3rd party without a copyright release.

Okay – let’s be a little realistic here. If you put pictures on facebook any friend with a right click button (so everyone) can save your pics to their computer and print your pictures wherever they want anyway. So if you’re putting pictures online without a watermark you’re taking that risk anyway. All this does is let them skip the “save to your computer” step.

Am I correct in assuming this does not apply to photos posted on business pages? If so I think this would be a non-issue for professional photographers.
