The issues is not that they do, but that they can. That post says 'our privacy policy promises never to..." In fact, after five minutes' trawling, I can't find anything in their policy that says anything of the sort.
I did find this gem:
"If you do not want us to store metadata associated with content you share on Facebook (such as photos), please remove the metadata before uploading the content."
Isn't that lovely! I wonder what proportion of facebook users know what metadata is, let alone how to remove it.
