(Agence Ecofin) – Meta has launched a communication campaign to inform some Facebook users of the removal of certain sections of their profiles, in particular their religious opinion
It is from Matt Navarra’s tweet that we learn that Facebook will remove from your profile the information fields reserved for religious opinions but also for your sexual orientation or your political opinion. This cancellation will be effective from December 1, 2022. On the images of the tweet, we note that the social network suggests downloading all your data before the deadline.

Meta confirmed this information by stating: “As part of our efforts to make Facebook easier to use, we’re removing a handful of profile fields: Interested In, Religious Opinions, Political Opinions, and Address. We send notifications to people who have filled in these fields. This change doesn’t affect anyone’s ability to share this information about themselves elsewhere on Facebook..”
