Deleted my account, but they'll still have all my data up until then. Rip. I wonder if Facebook likes to store passwords after deletion too

This is probably a diversionary tactic to draw attention AWAY from the privacy issue which is ongoing, uncorrected, and flat out, they don't want to correct it.. .

Never had an account.  Never wanted one.

Now really don't want one.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

The only difference between this "hack" and normal operations is that they were not paid.

Meh I don't care really.
I haven't posted anything on Facebook for years.
I basically only use it these days to say happy birthday to people.

Deleted my fb some time ago; do they get fined or something for this? I wonder if there ever will be a HIPAA for our information, yea I get that corps might fight it; but it seems like the natural thing to do to incentivize security, but I'm pretty ignorant to how difficult or easy it is to keep your systems secure.

It wasn't the same as a normal hack- they got tokens from people stupid enough to use FB to login to other sites.  Only affected those that thought that Facebook would be a good candidate for a credentials provider.
