The ego on an Instagram user

A quick rant about apocalyptic users moaning about the new terms and conditions that Instagram (a 100% free service) is imposing.When there is a single case of a photograph owned by a user being used by Instagram without anyone's permission I'll give a shit about these new terms.Until then, get over your ego. No one wants your photographs of a cappuccino, sock, self or sunset in an advert (or anywhere else for that matter).The people who should be concerned are the famous folk among us. Imagine Gaga or Biebers faces appearing in a Facebook advert without their permission.But really - Instagram using your photographs is quite close to winning the lottery, just bad.
