It isn't a great backup service, but it is useful. Every day they give me a x years ago you shared - normally a picture of my kids doing something cute that I forgot about until then. Brings a big smile to my face.

You have to be careful how you use Facebook. I've gotten aggressive about blocking all from every single group and cute kitten post. Facebook is a great way to share pictures with my friends and family. For news, jokes, buying/selling, and learning about my hobbies it is useless (because the algorithm doesn't show me everything). As a rules, if it isn't something you wouldn't mark as personal information with limited distribution it shouldn't be on Facebook. (this also implies Facebook needs high security)
