More details to this question:
Sorry to ask this again but I saw some girl picture on their facebook and MySpace and I decide to copy the picture and repost it on my secondary facebook and now I has lost access to it and I now I’m worry if that consider invasion of privacy because the picture was taken by them in their house. And also some in the restroom (with clothes) and they post it on their MySpace and facebook. I didn’t take the picture at all, just repost it, is facebook or MySpace consider public forum in anyway, I mean if they expected privacy they shouldn’t have post it on the public forum at all right?

Facebook is a public forum and should not not put anything on it that you want private.

Facebook and MySpace are public fora. If you put something on it and you have not restricted who has access to it, then you may as well have erected a huge billboard above your house and posted it there. You are free to take a photograph of someone else's billboard advertisement and put that photograph on a billboard above your own house. You have nothing to worry about.

I cannot see how they could sue for invasion of privacy. However, it is always difficult to advise an individual that you cannot get sued for whatever circumstances the individual describes. Some lawsuits involve novel issues, and sometimes, an attorney might see a case when the attorney hears the facts from the other party's point of view.

This is open for debate, as I heard recently on Public Radio. The question is "who owns material posted on the internet." I am not an expert in this field, but my guess would be that the privacy would be waived by making a posting on the internet. Now, if someone takes that material and uses it without the permission of the person who posted it, I think it is much like plagarizing portions of a book without crediting the author.

You're guilty of something. "...and now I has lost access to it and I now I'm worry if that..." What language are you trying to use? Your attempt below is so lame.

The socialnetworks are a brand new area of the law and no time has passed for the development of a body of law. of course such a network is public. And any idiot who posts their faces and derrieres on the web ought not to fuss about it if people see it. they post so they can be seen. It is strange but young people who use the network are strange in their desires to make themselves known to other people.
