#4One hell of a clickbait headline.
Since it is more fallout from the previous data handling issues and not further screwups on Facebook's part.
Not to downplay the issue... but its clearly written clickbait

Thanks. We've changed the URL from https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-04-03/millions-..., which appears to be a summary of that.

We've changed the URL to the study the article is reporting on, which also provides a cromulent title.

Not clickbait in the slightest. This is not about Facebook per se about persistence of their shared data - my information - once it's made public. HIPAA, by comparison has all sorts of statements about PII and business associates. But apparently FB can share with whoever has a pulse and I can find out about it later via Shodan.
I wrote this even with the original link and version of the headline.

The link has since been updated to be the original UpGuard research source.

"Millions of Facebook Records Found on Amazon Cloud Servers" was the original headline.
That headline the first thing you would likely think is Facebook was using AWS and left some data open somewhere. It 100% implied Facebook was doing more wrong now, instead of the companies that already had the data from the previous issues were not handling the data correctly.
Yes this news is still notable. But the headline gave the wrong impression and was banking on the already bad attitude towards Facebook.
