There's a LOT of infrastructure that already exists in the Hack ecosystem at Meta. Especially around things like data access control, privacy, auditing, data deletion, etc.
When I left earlier this year, pretty much all of the internal storage systems (from MySQL to blob storage) were moving to requiring all access to be via a common Entity framework that encoded the above-mentioned things in a common way. That framework exists on the non-Hack side of the house, but it's much, much easier and in some ways more robust on the Hack side.

Only a semi troll comment, IRL Facebook recently said they were genuinely unable to audit where personal information was ending up across their systems which is a terrifying thing to think about and another reason I genuinely hope their pivot to VR kills them as a company.
