Facebook says all of CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s posts from 2007 and 2008 were mistakenly deleted due to technical errors. The company says the posts were wiped out a few years ago and the work required to restore them was extensive and might not have worked. The deleted posts were first reported by Business Insider. “A few years ago some of Mark’s posts were mistakenly deleted due to technical errors. The work required to restore them would have been extensive and not guaranteed to be successful so we didn’t do it,” a Facebook spokesperson said in a statement. This is not the first time Zuckerberg’s comments have gone missing. In April 2018, messages the CEO sent to other people disappeared from their Messenger inboxes. Facebook had removed the CEO’s messages for security reasons, applying a self-delete function similar to Snapchat.
