Ars Technica (link via Lifehacker) reports that some social networking sites are better than others when it comes to removing your uploaded images. In Late May Ars staff deleted images from Flickr, Twitter, MySpace and Facebook. Links to the deleted images were broken immediately for Flickr and Twitter. Almost seven weeks later, the links to the images on MySpace and Facebook are still live. When contacted by Ars Technica, both services blamed the delay on third-party partners who help them with image storage.

All of this might be of interest to a certain spy chief from the UK whose wife posted tons of pictures of him and their family on her Facebook page.
