Although in hindsight, I'd rather have them absolutely destroy my sleep schedule than ending up getting in to less favorable university than I got in

Unlikely that any of us can answer this question properly unless we happen to know detailed laws for every country in the world.

I guess it's because they added it later so they can claim to have it while still being able to datamine the average user. Not that insane given that it's Facebook. I'd say what's insane is that's the same as what Telegram does and some people think that's secure!
Yeah but so is having a piece of paper that's slightly better than someone else's. Don't burn yourself out for either.
