Back in December, I wrote about a young man in Vienna who requested all the information that Facebook had collected on him over the year. To the surprise of many, his request yielded a delivery of a whopping 1,222 PDF files containing every single bit of Facebook activity he’d had since joining the site.

Honestly, I doubt there are enough paper sources – trees and recycled alike – to accomodate the staggering requirement to print out Facebook.
