Scary Facebook
A close friend closed his facebook account and downloaded his data. Here is what he got. Very scary. Glad Arjun and I never opened a facebook account. We do use whatsapp actively though

Interesting view points. When something goes wrong within India, we are very quick to blame officials, or entity like Municipality, police, judiciary, railways etc. However, when the issue is related to a large MNC like FB, we turn around to blame the users. Should the organization which provides the service be held accountable? It would be good to remember that though the service appears free, they are making money out of it. So we need not show any sympathy. The real value of this free "service" is just coming out.

Whatsapp communication is better than Facebook. But facebook has it's own advantage.

The persons are to be blamed themselves for such lapses ,such social media was made for other purposes but i find people are more bothered telling people of their lives,their outings ,their stories which are just making yourself happy.Others do not bother only give false impersonations of liking your feeds ,earlier only people genuine close to you were shared what you are terming as Data, by word of mouth ,telephones now people feel on top of the world posting such in information's ,photographs etc. thus bringing us to this juncture. Still take immediate steps and curtail your personal info.
