Copyright implications in Social Media

We are all sharing content on social media, photos, articles, even personal posts. Are there copyright implications? Each media platform has its own set of rules re copyright. Twitter doesn't allow the use of image sharing but people do it. How do we retain ownership of our photos? Images will always be bound by copyright. Having content shared and distributed through an array of networks like Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and Twitter can be very beneficial but even these networks are bound by copyright.
