I have always assumed that the NSA have a firehose feed running from Facebook to Fort Meade.
I can't imagine a reason why in the interests of national security, why they wouldn't have already approached Facebook with a secret request to get full access to all Facebook data, regardless of the user's privacy settings.
I have already proved to myself that when you delete something on Facebook, it is not actually deleted, but simply marked as archived. My guess is that they now also move the images, rather than delete them, to satisfy the previous outcry at deleted photos that were still "cached on the CDN". cough bullshit.
Once your data is on Facebook, you can never remove it. I don't trust them as far as I can throw a $1 billion company.

I'll take my tin-foil hat off now.
