Delete your facebook accounts. Its just a large data mining operation. It even has financial backing by the US government.
What about drinking?

I use Facebook ads (for non Cannabis stuff) and they're very anal about nearly everything, not just drug related material. I'm not surprised they would disapprove of a pot leaf image. Your ad can be 100% legit and they'll disapprove it based on 1-2 words or the URL of the ad. Advertising guidelines are generally strict.
Our good ol Big Bro got in early, so on top of the data mine, they are making bank. When the dots are connected, this picture isn't pretty.

Facebook is great it even has it's own hitlist app. 
Police in Colombia are puzzled over the deaths of three teenagers in the southwestern town of Puerto Asis whose names appeared on a hit list posted on Facebook.
CNN reports that the list gave warning that the 69 people named on the list had three days to leave the town or be executed. Police don’t know who posted the list or what their motivation is. ”It is still not clear,” Colombian national police spokesman Wilson Baquero told CNN. “This is part of the investigation.”
At first police thought the list was a joke. But then three teens from the list were killed in the past 10 days and a second hit list, with the names of 31 women, was posted. Panicked parents are reportedly sending children named on the list out of town.
Colombian federal officials have sent investigators to the town. They note that the Los Rastrojos criminal gang and the FARC Marxist guerrillas are both active in the region. Facebook did not respond to CNN’s requests for comment.
It is unclear what requests Colombian police may have made to Facebook for IP information that could help them track down the people who posted the lists. It is also unclear whether Facebook would have automatically granted such requests. Facebook policy is not to comment on specific cases, though they will talk about their law-enforcement initiatives more generally.
Facebook has procedures in place for law enforcement around the world to request information housed on the social networking site’s servers. In most cases a warrant is required before Facebook would hand over information, though it has a rapid-response system when time-sensitive requests are made and public safety is at stake. There is a 24-hour hotline for law enforcement manned in relay by both the Palo Alto and Irish offices. However, at times tensions have surfaced because of Facebook’s low employee to user ratio and skeletal presence on the ground in most countries. Police and governments in places such as Australia have demanded greater cooperation from Facebook.

Doesn't surprise me. Certain things aren't tolerated on Facebook.
