   If you have Facebook "like" buttons embedded on your website, it could make you liable for breaking GDPR privacy laws, even if it's Facebook doing the illegal stuff:

   https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/07/29/eu_gdpr_facebook_like_button/

   You can protect your site from legal liability (and protect your users' privacy) by removing all Facebook like buttons.

   Please tell your employers/organisations about this ruling, it may help convince them that Facebook is toxic (or at least that embedded like buttons are toxic).
