Honestly, worrying about Facebook data logging is a rather pointless tempest in a teapot until you accept that the web, as a whole, is a front in an on going information war between countries and non-state actors. Coordinating an a weekly event to honor veterans is pointless, if you're channeling in-vetted information (i.e., birther theories) or dismissing the findings of intelligence agencies when they present you with evidence of a state ordered cyber attack. Honoring those veterans while you're making yourself defenseless to cyber attacks is a bit like having a memorial service on the field, while the battle is being fought and wondering why the enemy is winning the battle.
This is serious stuff and Visian's comment about a targeted message has to be viewed from the perspective of a "targeted attack".
So, yell and scream about Facebook all you want, but don't forget to support the folks in our intelligence and cyber defense communities that are trying to protect us from a lot of people and countries that aren't our friends.
Lot of energy in that post, but if you were making a point, I missed it.
Sorry.
