But the info you post on Facebook.com is not the only place FB is getting your data. They purchase Credit Card data, follow you around the web with pixels and Facebook login, allegedly track cell phone calls (I don't know enough about this), encourage people to install their VPN (thereby knowing everything you're doing on your device).

I do agree that the easiest thing is to delete your account there is a lot more to it than what you engage with on their products.

You can opt out on all of these. So I don't see the bigger issue actually. The Internet is no cuddle place. Protection always was in the hands of the user.
