What Mends a Broken Heart on Facebook

In 2017, Facebooks People Insights blog published a post titled What Mends a Broken Heart on Facebook. In it, the companys researchers detailed insights that they had gathered by examining how the break-up moment influenced the online behaviors of people across France, the Netherlands, Poland, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom who indicated on Facebook that they recently went through a break up.
One of their findings was that there could be a gap between the break up itself and the Facebook post announcing it. During the two weeks before and the two weeks after their break-up announcement, they explained, users accepted more than one invitation to an event 40% more than [during] the 60 days before and 60 days after their announcement.
The researchers also noted that Healing, detox, drowning sorrows, binge watching and suffering are just some of the words and phrases that are more pronounced in mens posts before they mark themselves Single. The same types of words and phrases are more pronounced in womens posts on the actual day of their announcement.
As to what helps people get over a breakup, Facebook researchers wrote that [g]aining new experiences seems to be more therapeutic than buying things. Under the subhead What it means for marketers, the post then asks, How can brands be a part of the journey to help mend peoples broken hearts? Suggested answers include Empathize with them and Offer them new experiences. The post concludes by encouraging potential Facebook advertising clients: Tracking signals of intent to travel, experience new things or take up a new hobby can help you reach this group with a relevant ad at the right time.
Is it ethical for Facebook to mine its users posts for signals that those users are about to go through a break up? Is it ethical for the company to then help its clients target their ads based on this research? Is what Facebook is doing different from what other companies do?

Vignette:
Naomi, a 16-year old female adolescent, is brought to your office by her parents after they found scratches on Naomis wrist and a note saying, I just wish I wouldnt wake up in the morning. Triggering event is reportedly seeing her boyfriend with another girl at school. The parents report that Naomi is an excellent student and always has been a happy child. During her adolescence, she reportedly became moody and irritable, with fits of rage when she doesnt get her way. When she was 15, Naomi apparently told her best friend that she planned on overdosing on her fathers pain pills, but the best friend told Naomis parents and this was intercepted. The incident at that time was also over rejection by a boy at school. Currently, Naomi is an excellent student, has no physical ailments, denies substance use and shows no signs of psychosis or mania. Mother tells you that Naomi sleeps a lot, sometimes 12 hours on the weekends, eats very little at dinner, and has gotten quite thin. Father is worried about his daughter as she is not the same little girl that adored him. Both parents are fearful that Naomi will harm herself. In session Naomi appears annoyed and denies intent to harm herself. She tells you, Im fine. Everyone is over-reacting. My parents just need to chill. Theyre smothering me with their ridiculous worry.
Family history reveals suicide attempts by Naomis mother when she herself was an adolescent due to chronic abuse by her alcoholic father. Mother denies suicidal ideation at present, and is on antidepressant and antianxiety medications. She does reveal that her paternal grandfather was an alcoholic who killed himself when his wife left him. Naomis father is a police officer, currently on disability. He suffers from chronic back pain, and is prescribed narcotics for pain management. Both parents are adamant that their medications are safely kept and that Naomi has no access them.
