How Much Does Facebook Retain? by mytym(m): 1:24am On Jun 16, 2013
NLerz next time u wanna do anything like chats, status updates,likes, comments, games, apps or post anything,pix, videos et cetra on fb, u might want to read this before u do.

An Austrian law student wanted to know how much data about him had been stored by the world's largest social network during his three-year membership, so he requested a copy. Facebook sent him a CD containing 1,222 pages of data. As reported by the German newspaper Der Tagesspiegel, the student said: "Everything had been stored -every message, every chat, including sensitive information about friends." Included was infomation that he was sure he had deleted!

How do you think facebook will work without retaining info in its database ? Every website stores info in its db or files. As for the deleting part, most site don't directly delete stuff from their database they just set a flag ON or OFF, 1 or 0, then shows only data that are still ON. You might be suprised at the number of site that does that. Thats one thing you or that law kid might neva know. Am neva afraid of sending secret or private info on fb because i know the security is OK.
