David Knighton reported a problem in Vimeo on March 24, 2009 17:25:
Vimeo's terms of service are draconian, and they refuse to address the situation. Can we get a useful response, please?I has been brought to light by several of Vimeo's users that the terms of service are decidedly ominous where intellectual property rights are concerned.
"VIMEO shall be entitled to unrestricted use of any Submission for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the submitter."
Read for yourself here: http://www.vimeo.com/terms
Furthermore, Vimeo's own management refuses to address the concerns of their users, opting only to repeatedly post the same canned statement in their forum here: http://www.vimeo.com/forums/topic:12128
Since the discussion has now been locked by an administrator, it appears Vimeo has no intention of addressing their user's concerns, much less correcting the issue. They need to do so immediately, instead of sticking their heads in the sand, hoping the issue will go away.-

I made the mistake of adding this app when I started receiving several requests from Facebook friends. Once I did, it started spamming all my contacts without any intervention on my part.
The odd thing is, I have never once seen any "pics" in PicDoodle. All it ever does is tag your friends in non-existent photos. It is either a scam app, or it is an app that does not work correctly (or is unfinished). Either way, it should not have the ability to automatically tag people on your friends list without your consent. That's just bad policy. -
