To this the writer,who seems to have taken the blame directly responded,read his reply below;
Now, even as we proceed, allow me to use this opportunity to
enlighten everyone, from celebrities to the hoi poloi folk leading a
humdrum existence. Please take the time to actually read through the
fine print we usually ignore from Facebook to Instagram to Twitter:
Guidelines on getting pictures off Facebook:
This is the legal framework pertaining to pictures we get off Facebook for all the celebrities who write to complain.
Sharing Your Content and Information
You own all of the content and information you post on
Facebook, and you can control how it is shared through your privacy and
application settings. In addition:
For content that is covered by intellectual property
rights, like photos and videos (IP content), you specifically give us
the following permission, subject to your privacy and application
settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable,
royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on
or in connection with Facebook (IP License). This IP License ends when
you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been
shared with others, and they have not deleted it.
When you delete IP content, it is deleted in a manner
similar to emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you
understand that removed content may persist in backup copies for a
reasonable period of time (but will not be available to others).
When you use an application, the application may ask for your permission to access your content and information as well as content and information that others have shared with you. We require applications to respect your privacy, and your agreement with that application will control how the application can use, store, and transfer that content and information. (To learn more about Platform, including how you can control what information other people may share with applications, read our Data Use Policy and Platform Page.)
When you publish content or information using the Public setting, it means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of Facebook, to access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your name and profile picture).
We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about Facebook, but you understand that we may use them without any obligation to compensate you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).

So essentially, the long and short of it is that I have done nothing
wrong. When you want things to remain private, either do not put them up
or click private on your settings.
