Are "deleted" photos really gone from Facebook? Not always

Twitter and Flickr deleted our photos within seconds. Direct links to the photos in question broke after a quick hard refresh, so you can be sure that your salacious pictures mistakenly posted to Flickr while inebriated will no longer be accessible to your enemies (assuming they didn’t copy them to their hard drives, that is).

Facebook and MySpace, however, did not fare so well. As of this writing, both images we used are still available on Facebook and MySpace servers despite having been “deleted” in May.
