I will delete my account if they do that. I am more and more tempted to find a new service to replace Facebook and Instagram but its not Google plus.

It's not if. When. Goes live Jan 16th and if you haven't deleted your account by then, photos become property of Instagram. The biggest place to get stock photos, where they don't actually pay for any of the material....

Update Tuesday 2:50 p.m. PT: Instagram has backed down, as we report in this CNET article posted a few minutes ago. It says it will "remove" the language that caused a user revolt over the last day.

The comments in that article are gold:

OH NO. There is no way they can have rights to any of my pictures of what i had for lunch and my starbucks drinks and occasionly colorful macaroons. Back off my macaroons!
Some people are more creative than that and put some effort into their pictures.
I apologize to all the true Instagram artists out there. My mistake. Keeping doing what you do.

Wifey, surely like many others, deleted her acct within 15min of reading the article. Kept it just long enough to make sure she still had copies of everything. Once again, Facebook does something stupid w/out thinking about the consequences.
