Facebook To Remove Several Information Fields From Profiles, Including Religious and Political Views

Meta has confirmed that it's removing addresses, "interested in", political views and religion from Facebook profiles as of December 1st.

You can download a copy of your Facebook data before December 1st if you're determined to preserve it, and you still have control over who can see the remaining profile content.
