I read something about those, think the article I read said something about it tracking your preferences to target adverts at you

That's exactly what it does but it goes beyond facebook. Facebook inserts itself into cookies on and from other sites and places and tracks you whether you are on FB or not. It's pathetic how that little shit has people so roped into the 'addiction' of facebook.

The irony is that he's siding on the side of Apple regarding privacy during this 'conflict' about opening a terrorists phone. Zuckerberg has no clue what privacy is.

Oh man, the bullshit from facebook gets deeper and deeper. The little shit claims ignorance on this but you gotta realize this is the same little shit that wants your nude photos to protect you from "revenge porn".

Please be careful what you share.

Pretty much my rule of thumb has always been:

Never put anything anywhere on the internet that you don't want to be completely public knowledge!

that's why I have private areas that are actually private (by me anyway. what others take from it I cannot control), and I do not require you to use your personal info to log in or to protect your account. lol what a load of crap.

Remember, this is also the little douche that wants your nudes to protect you from revenge porn

I just spent an hour unclicking the most inane bullshit that facebook added into my feed they want to shove down my face via adverts. I gotta tell you this has to happen daily contrary to what your link says, Biker because every time you click something or you hit like on a friends thing they are showing you, it'll be in your settings to shove at you via adverts. too bad there isn't a setting to say NO to ALL and ANY advert.

That's kind of what I got. ANY time you click on something it will add it and you then have to go deselect it. Sounds like a real drag.

it's bullshit and that little shit is counting on people not knowing this or not bothering because it's tedious. Most people go there on their phones and I don't and won't. If you're my friend, call me. simple.

I can't tell you how often fb friends say it's too hard to figure how to register here. Seriously?

A buddy was telling me that he saw that if you accessed FB from your phone that they then hoovered up contacts and everything, people's information that have never even been on FB.  Sounds pretty shitty to me.

And no, registering here is pretty easy.
