The whole story is rather funny but I have a Q for all the legal folks;

Isnt refusing to remove profiles (so data then) illegal ( and by illegal i mean 'the evidence before the court in incontrovertible, there's no need for the jury to retire' open & shut case illegal ) in pretty much every civilized country in the world? in the UK that would surely be up against the DPA & similar in the US/Canada etc. Pretty sure it would be illegal in most individual EU nations & the EU as a whole which has already decided FB refusing to delete profiles/user data is illegal would feel likewise about this fly by night operation
