Due to the craziness that is Cambridge Analytica and Facebook, I wonder... have you taken the leap and deleted Facebook entirely? Or have you taken a different approach? It's difficult to remove access to something you use to stay in touch with family or friends. So what did you do?

I live in New Zealand, so they probably aren't paying much attention to what I think, and I'm smart enough not to take part in those surveys (well, I'm smart enough *now*)

I deleted my account a couple years ago. I should have poisoned my data beforehand, but ces't la vie.

I'm one of those people that reads literally everything before agreeing to anything. I also don't include things on my social media platforms that contains PII. I could instantly turn into a "ghost" if I wanted to as nothing really defines who I am on that level with social media. It is pretty bad on Facebook that this happened though.

Thanks for the overwhelming replies to this poll!! I'm an auditor myself. I keep my Facebook clean of anything I don't want them knowing, and mostly just use it to post photos of travel, retweets from my public twitter account, and videos I do. I also admin a couple of pages, which requires a profile...

I don't use Facebook enough for it to be useful for data mining. I stopped using social media regularly long ago because of an incident where an unknown actor was attempting to social engineer myself and a friend at the same time, with considerably deeper information about the both of us then was publicly available, but it was clear "they" used social media to build a relationship map for the both us.

I've been practicing a very eclectic form of privacy by feeding-fake-information since I [re]started my account. :)
