About the only two major places on the Internet that explicitly give permission to reuse their users' content are Wikipedia and Stack Overflow. Add the public domain texts in Project Gutenberg and that's about it, the rest of the Social Media requires consent from the user to be reused elsewhere. This is the crux of the problem, CEOs just taking data indiscriminately from the Internet just because it's indexable by Google.
