I can’t remember why I have this Facebook (now Meta, I guess) app. Maybe for linking images from Facebook? Anyway, they sent me an email about a “Data Use Checkup” which wants the app to be associated with a “business account,” but it’s just a sole proprietorship so I have none of the documentation they’re demanding. If I ignore this and they disable the app what will happen?
