I seriously doubt many of us take the time to actually read them, and I certainly didn't read Pinterest's terms of service before I started using the it. I haven't used Pinterest for awhile, but it's interesting that pinning something means that you claim sole ownership. Nothing I've pinned is mine, and I've never asked permission to pin anything. It makes sense they'd have to backtrack a bit and clarify copyright issues. Rachel, I’m agree with you about terms and agreements.
