Stop using Facebook. It's really that simple.
Found the guy who's never heard of "shadow profiles."

They didn't say delete your FB account. They just said to stop using it.
You use Facebook whether you use Facebook, or not. That's how shadow profiles work.
This has nothing to do with deleting accounts.
I agree shadow profiles are a huge problem, but I suspect they're not worth much to Meta in terms of revenue. You can't show ads to a shadow profile, for example. Best way to hurt them financially is to just log off.

I think they're probably worth quite a bit, or Meta wouldn't spend billions acquiring and maintaining the data.
And as we know, in the valley there are always more and more customers for data, personal and otherwise.
