I would say they own the URI: https://graph.facebook.com/kidehen I use that URI as the basis for a disambiguated URI in my data space, for instance, as per my comments re. owl:sameAs relations in my data space. > Would you agree that the owner of a URI gets to decide what it identifies? Of course. > Would you agree that a good URI is one where the URI owner has explicitly communicated (ideally through its representations) what it identifies?

In a graph, in my data space, it would be meaningful and useful since I would have triples in place that provide additional information about the referents of the identifiers in the relation above. Outside my data space all bets are off. > or this: > > <http://graph.facebook.com/richard.cyganiak> > foaf:knows<http://graph.facebook.com/kidehen>. Not in my data space (bar you having CRUD privileges there), of course you could make that assertion in yours :-) My data space is a place where I control data CRUD operations. Its also a place where inference rules are optionally associated with SPARQL queries, for instance.
