Facebook to sell photos taken with Instagram, without your permission UPDATE: Actually, no

Yesterday, Instagram (owned by Facebook) introduced a change in user policy that has gotten pretty much everyone pissed off. All those photos you’ve uploaded to Instagram? Instagram and Facebook have now declared those photos are theirs and they have the right to sell them or do whatever without ever telling you, without your permission, with no opt-out.

UPDATE: Looks like Instagram has already scrapped that idea.

Website of the day: Boobstagram

Boobstagram harvests breast and cleavage pictures from Instagram, or takes submissions directly, as a way to bring attention to breast cancer. It’s a nice cause and there are a whole lot of really nice boobs involved.

Photograph This Shit (Completed): Instagram

So if you haven’t heard, Facebook bought Instagram for $1 billion

Unlike Google, Microsoft and Apple, Facebook isn’t really that big on acquisitions. They’ve made almost none for a company of their value, choosing to instead focus on their one core thing. So when Facebook announced they had bought Instagram for a whopping $1 billion, it was a bit of a surprise. Mark Zuckerberg wanted to note however, that this doesn’t mean they’re going to start buying people up.

Attention Android hipster: Instagram is now available for your phone

If you’ve got an Android phone and you’ve been secretly lusting after the faux retro digital photo stylings of Instagram, you can now get Instagram for Android. Don’t hate… you’ll be desaturating, oversaturating and giving your photos retro film borders in no time. It’s fun. DO IT.
