Isn't Facebook opt-in? If you don't like it, surely you can just leave?

Yes, and you can buy a heavy padlock and put it on your barn door-- but that doesn't make it retroactively OK for someone to steal your horse in the first place.

Now, if they had sent out advance notice saying that 60 days from today, a band of horse thieves will be visiting your neighborhood, then you would have nobody to blame but yourself if you didn't take appropriate precautions.
