Personally, I wish Facebook would finally get slammed with the long overdue consequences of questionable practices when it comes to data handling and transparency, let alone minuscule control users have on own account and PII. This leak may have been preventable for a vast number of individuals. I suppose many are familiar with the old account "deletion" process that would — years later, too — prove itself not to be a real removal, but a mere deactivation, waiting to return from their graveyard whenever pinged by the simplest of login attemps by bots or ill intentioned individuals. At this point in time, considering the sheer amount of I believe accounts struck in a limbo, a dedicated fast track deletion process should be enforced on Facebook. I have, in my little knowledge, not found any case of GDPR requests granting one's wishes to see old accounts (that did not accept their newer ToS and cannot be authenticated in any possible manner permitted currently, in which registration and connected e-mails are not) be permanently removed from their systems. My attemps, at least, have come short.
