Attention Facebook users -- what are you giving away?

I have no Facebook account so I've never read the Facebook Terms of Service (TOS). But I ran across this link from a young lawyer blogger called Legal Andrew who claims to have investigated the Facebook TOS.

Among other things (as you'll see if you follow the link) he charges that using Facebook automatically grants rights to Facebook to use anything you post, any way it wants.

This much I do know: There's no invasion of privacy where there's no privacy at all.

If Mr. Legal Andrew's analysis is flawed or skewed, please advise in the comments below.
