What happens when I delete a post on Facebook? - braveincome027 - 02-20-2013 10:52 AM
I posted a somewhat private pic of one of my teachers on a private Facebook group. It got a bunch of likes and comments, but when my mom saw it (my FB account was still logged in to on my computer) she made me take it down (which I understand to be a smart move, now). Will those people who liked and commented on the post be notified that it was deleted? Will they ever really know that it was deleted unless they attempt to search for it and cannot find it? And what really happens when you delete something on Facebook? I noticed in their "Privacy Rights" page that they don't delete all info when something is deleted, so what stays and what goes? Thanks for helping me out.

Naw; it's just that they won't be able to find it anymore and any links directing to the pic will result in a 404 error. Although i don't see why it'd be so bad for them to know you deleted it, because it sounds pretty understandable.
By the way... what was in the picture? Lol
