Facebook Is Finally Deleting Your Photos When You Want Them To

It does n’t change the fact that you should be careful what pics you brand online , but Facebook isno longer economize your photo on its serversafter you ’ve delete them . at long last !

While Twitter , for example , would remove a pic from its capacity delivery meshing ( CDN ) pretty much as soon as you did , Facebook was hold onto them . This was something that , grant to report fromArs Technica , it was doing for more than three years . What did mean in practice ? dawn on a direct URL to a party moving-picture show you conceive you ’d deleted long ago , and you ’d be staring at yourself blacked out on a barstool puff on a joint .

But now these links only have a shelf lifespan of 30 days , and in some cases Facebook read they ’ll die more quickly . That ’s still a little suspect , but better than that one-time picture of you bonging a beer at a college tailgate dwell somewhere in the labyrinth of Facebook ’s host for all eternity . This does n’t intend that you could skip on your profile and post snaps of your most elicit evening with rash abandon , but if something slips through the wisecrack , you have less of a reason to worry .
