Mark Zuckerberg testified before Congress last month, and there were a few points he needed to clarify. He promised to get back to the legislators, and so he did.
Here’s the list:
information from “computers, phones, connected TVs, and other web-connected devices,” as well as your “internet service provider or mobile operator”
2. “mouse movements” on your computer
3. “app and file names” (and the types of files) on your devices
4. whether the browser window with Facebook open is “foregrounded or backgrounded,” and time, frequency, and duration of activities
5. information about “nearby Wi-Fi access points, beacons, and cell towers” and “signal strength” to triangulate your location (“Connection information like your IP address or Wi-Fi connection and specific location information like your device’s GPS signal help us understand where you are,” said a Facebook spokesperson.)
6. information “about other devices that are nearby or on their network”
7. “battery level”
8. “available storage space”
9. installed “plugins”
10. “connection speed”
11. “purchases [users] make” on off-Facebook websites
12. contact information “such as an address book” and, for Android users, “call log or SMS log history” if synced, for finding “people they may know” (Here’s how to turn off contact uploading or delete contacts you’ve uploaded.)
13. information “about how users use features like our camera” (The Facebook spokesperson explained, “In order to provide features like camera effects, we receive what you see through camera, send to our server, and generate a mask/filter.”)
14. “location of a photo or the date a file was created” through the file’s metadata
15. information through your device’s settings, such as “GPS location, camera, or photos”
16. information about your “online and offline actions” and purchases from third-party data providers
17. “device IDs, and other identifiers, such as from games, apps or accounts users use”
18. “when others share or comment on a photo of them, send a message to them, or upload, sync or import their contact information”

I haven't deleted my account, but I did take the app off my phone (I needed the storage space). It seems even less useful/compelling when you only check it once a day from your desktop or use the clunky mobile site.

After 6 years I deleted my account. They don't make it easy at all.
Then from deletion it takes 14 days to disappear.
Wonder what I'll do with all the free time, won't have as many fun memes to post on here, but maybe I'll speak to my family more. :-)- did you d/l your data first and manually delete your likes, comments and photos?notype

- It doesn’t get deleted, your account just goes into a disabled state till you log in againmoldero
- You can login a couple years later and your account will be back just as you left it but activemoldero
- I know because I just accidentally logged into my old account a couple weeks ago and it basically just activated itmoldero
- If there’s a way to really delete it I’d love to know howmoldero

The government should run Twitter and Facebook like US Mail, unfortunately. Take the privatization away and monitor for terrorism.
- No wait this is a terrible idea. People trust the govt less than corporatesince1979
- They're the same fucking thingset
- Except for the privatization. Tax payers would run itsince1979
- Yea right, lolset
- I know. It would never work and features would take forever to be added. But that's the reality of a government-driven social media platformsince1979
- But it would have zero ads and be as secure as social securitysince1979
- Yikes. Sounds worse with every word.since1979

Every social network would become a problem one way or the other because the goal of their creators is or become to make the more money as possible.
We would need an open source platform on a model like Wikipedia as a social network

- Not a big fan of Facebook, but this just seems like media piling on.yuekit
- Facebook doesn't deserve *any* sympathy whatsoever. The media, the media's dog, the media's wife who gets flirty after a drink or two - they can pile on to fuckface_melter
