I also downloaded my data and deleted my account. I have known for a long time, even before the scandal, that my time on the socalled social media site was coming to an end. Being a software engineer I believe I am aware of a good deal of what is going on behind the scenes at Facebook, in terms of collecting data etc. Talking to people which has no technical insight around privacy, and what data is collected as such, frustrates me to a whole new level than before. It amazes me that people don't sit down for a couple of hours and tries to understand how the company works and what their business model is based on. And what data is collected from them, with or without their knowledge. I am happy to be off and I will try to convince my peers to understand why.
