Agreed that that's a good reason not to promise to delete the data. However, they don't even say they'll try to delete it, do they? Of course, "trying" is legally just a terrible way to not promise and still get sued. I get why their lawyers would want them not even mention the data itself. Still...Facebook is not exactly trusted when it comes to the privacy of just about anything. They're trying to operate a service in the grey area between what they want to do and reality, and doing so depends heavily on people's trust in their intentions. You can guess how much I trust Facebook to keep my data private right now (if not from my timeline, then from the government, etc.)
