    How about actually deleting messages, tag histories, etc when a user deletes them.

    How about having HTTPS enabled by default and not requiring a user to activate it themselves... its funny we had a task to look at security / privacy of facebook early this year and the findings were funny, privacy of each user (by default) has got worse and worse, when it first started most of it was private but now alot of things are public.

    Silly facebook.

    But then they wouldn't be able to recover them when the silly user decides they actually want them back!
