> If I understand correctly, your post can still be effectively tweeted/facebooked if someone includes your original post in a reply and *their* buttons are turned on.
It depends what you mean by "effectively". Your post wouldn't be included, at least not by default:
> By default, sharing/tweeting includes the subject line and the URL of the post. In the case of Facebook, it also includes the beginning of the post (the same "preview", which excludes quoted text, that you get when you mouse over a link to it here). In both cases, people can edit before they submit.

But clicking on the URL would show their whole post, which would in this case include your post. And even if they didn't include your post, there would be the "in reply to" link, so your post would be one more click away.
Which IMO isn't so different than Google.
