A lawsuit was filed against Facebook in Ireland in 2011 for this exact issue: Also, there was an incident in which old posts were resurrected to the top of your profile as well. There are other Facebook users who have encountered the very same scenario, with their deleted posts coming back to them. Scarier yet is the fact that this isn’t an isolate incident.

I also deleted all my photos and albums except two profile photos,” Laura explains, telling us that her profile was clean with the exception of two photographs and a few basic personal details from the About section. “I deleted all my posts, likes and comments. It’s not unreasonable to assume that this issue was a bug, but after the second time around when Laura had once again painstakingly deleted all her content, she grew more suspicious. In October of that year, she logged into Facebook to discover that all of her Timeline content had been restored. Laura (who withheld her last name) deleted her Facebook posts “one-by-one” in February 2012, fearful of the repercussions that Facebook’s new Timeline (at the time) might bring. In fact, sometimes these deleted Facebook posts are reappearing.Ī few users have discovered just how persistent Facebook has been. Apparently, that’s not quite the case. New evidence suggests that Facebook might not really be deleting the posts you think you’re getting rid of. You’d hope that by clicking delete, your content is permanently removed. Perhaps you just want to start fresh, or you’re simply distrusting of Facebook with your information and want to get rid of old posts. Sometimes we want to delete our Facebook history – maybe just pieces of it, or maybe everything.
