This doesn't surprise me. I think the best you could do is delete all your information from your account.

No, you change the information and for months on end complete surveys and buying habits that are MUCH different than your true interests. Change your location, etc. Then delete it and block all facebook scripts.

I think maybe I was lucky with that one. For years I was using a fake email/fake name with FB, and after an argument with another user my FB account got blocked. I later started another account with my real name and barely used it. Not much to delete there. Never had it as an app on my phone.
