      Elon Musk's major corporations, Tesla and SpaceX have nuked their Facebook accounts and left the platform, signally that big business may be taking the current Facebook and Cambridge Analytica situation quite seriously.

          Your Facebook app not your account?

            Need the account, only way to reach people. Too much of the world is FB only.

                  It's true, so many can't use modern communications methods.

                    Yes, I am well aware 🙂 Also I found it interesting that they did not shutdown their Instagram account.

                          Just having a Example if we are deleting any User inside Linux box means the user will be deleted permanently but in Facebook which is not even deleting the user permanently as such

                            They tell you at the end that if you log back in within 14 days, the account is reactivated. Nothing surprising with that, wait 2 weeks after deactivating and then try.

                                          It wouldn’t cover everything but Facebook wouldn’t give you comprehensive news, just click bait.

                                            Yeah. I deleted my FB account before, but discovered I used it to log in to a few other websites. So i had to reactivate it, unfortunately.
