To me it’s a privacy alert because Facebook now potentially knows every site I visit. I ended up adding "127.0.0.1 connect.facebook.net" to my /etc/hosts.

- cmelbye 16y agoOh, that's very true. I hadn't realized that at first, but the original site is probably in the Referer field... Now that I think about it, that is scary.
- steadicat 16y agoNot just in the Referer field. Facebook widgets need to know which site they're referring to, so the widget code that site owners include on their site contains the site id.
