A lot of these revelations are coming from the fact that Facebook allows you to download the information it has stored about you.

There is an exceedingly high chance that the managers are going to notice this. And, rather than doing the right thing by storing less information, they are going to lie about what they have, and put a filter in place regarding what they let you download (a bit) vs. what they actually have (everything).

We need to be nuanced in our approach to the world, but it is becoming increasingly clear that Facebook has created a business model that incentivizes (and maybe depends on) evil behavior.
