If you think that my post was "conspiracy-theorist-red-flags", you need to read more Terms of Service. That's not a "conspiracy theory", it's a factual description of what clauses Terms of Service typically contain.
Go read your credit card TOS. Go read your cell phone TOS. Go read the TOS of your favorite ten websites large enough to have a legal staff. Go read the EULA for your favorite ten pieces of commercial software. I'll wait. You'll find that clause is everywhere. I know this, because I have read them.
Not to mention I then go on to talk about why they have legitimate reasons to exist and shouldn't be considered simply as "power grabs"; I explicitly repudiate conspiracy theories, with reasons.
I'm not at odds with what you or unalone have said. I understand the need for TOS agreements, good or bad as they may be (even though not tested in a court), and the difficulty interfacing with bazillions of users.
My specific point was to say that it would be extremely _easy_ for Facebook to have notified it's users of a change. My credit card, mobile phone and utility providers can all seem to do it via snail mail whenever there is a change. Whether they choose to do it for whatever reason is another discussion.
If you're Facebook? You're a closed-off site that doesn't like interacting with other companies, and you're also incredibly popular. There's no way you can do anything without the Internet getting mad at you.
I think they figure it's not worth bugging users about it.
