You own what you post.

Explanation: generally you retain copyright and ownership of your content, but social media platforms' terms of service typically grant them broad licenses to use, copy, and share your data (and they may also collect/own aggregated or metadata). Governments can compel access by law; there's no neutral "platform committee" that usually owns users' data.
