    Actually, I don't believe they can keep the information to themselves, even if they wanted to, as they are based in the US.

I agree that they can't. Their business model is to aggregate identities and monetize them to various market segments one of which is the US government.

I don't believe there is anything facebook wouldn't try to stick in a database and sell.
