[10:34] complicated. That is why it is advisable to have at least one or two of your own photos on your Facebook account. But if you only upload your cat photos But if you only upload your cat photos or photos of places, art, and so on, and

[12:15] small letter, a number, and also special character. Simple passwords like your name, date of birth, your favorite thing, and all those are not advisable. Also, after getting back your account, make sure you avoid clicking on links
