Starting December 1st, Facebook will remove a handful of personal bio details that users can share on their profiles, a spokesperson from the company confirmed with Insider on Wednesday.
These fields include “Interested in,” which indicates a user’s sexual orientation, “Religious views,” “Political views,” and “Address.” The rest of the information such as contact info will remain.
Facebook did not say why its removing these details from its profiles.
Last week, Meta, which owns Facebook, let go of 11,000 employees, or 13% of its workforce, across the company to save money after losing billions of dollars in revenue on lavish spending on the metaverse.
