> I "deleted" my FB more than 8 years ago, but since it was not possible to actually delete the data it was only disabled. In January I decided to re-activate it to get in touch with old acquaintances. Surprisingly, all of my pictures, contacts, and other interactions were there. Even a pending friend request was pending for 8 years. There's a bit of a mixed message here. When you reactivated your account, you wanted to get in touch with old acquaintances. Yet you expressed surprise when your contacts were still there, even though you presumably wanted them to be. Was that a pleasant surprise? Or you were reactivating your account only with the intention of starting from scratch 100%?
