Facebook proposes changes to Statement of Rights and Responsibilities

Facebook has proposed several changes to its Statement of Rights and Responsibilities and is asking the public for feedback until March 22, TechCrunch reports.

The most important changes are the prohibition of extracting source code from its downloadable software, and a clear explanation that friends can share information through applications. The changes are necessary since Facebook released its first download “Messenger For Windows” this month, and because it has come under greater scrutiny from government privacy offices.

Along with details of what users aren’t allowed to do with its downloadable software, Facebook wants its documents to note that it may automatically provide updates.
