What about giving me an easy option to export my messages while you are at it?

  Unfortunately, the feature to export your messages is only available to Facebook's data partners.

    your ignorance adds nothing of value to this conversation. facebook data partners do not have a download your data button. that's not how any of this works.

    This sort of shallow dismissal does nobody on any side of any argument any good. We've asked you many times to stop posting unsubstantive comments to HN. If you can't or won't stop, we will ban you. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
