    I did receive an email today which I’ve not digested yet. However, the article you linked is dated 09/09/2013. Any thoughts on the implications of the most recent changes?

    Hello Andy, I just finished wiping my entire account content and have requested that the account be deleted. Should take up to 14 days.

    Andy Beel is a photographer and blogging colleague of mine here in south Bristol. He has serious concerns about changes that have been made to Facebook’s rules and regulations. I don’t use Facebook but maybe some of you do – you might want to read this. Adrian

    No surprise. I’m guessing Facebook has stored everything you every put on there, whether you deleted it or not, and now has the right to sell it all. What surprises me is how many people don’t even care. I’m looking into WordPress to see what I didn’t read in their user agreement.
