She forgot about searches. If you search for someone, and browse to their timeline (I am not sure how many times this needs to happen), you will eventually be recommended to that person as "someone they might know,” and vice versa.

- Mtinie 9y agoUnless you read something in the article that I missed this wasn't the case. The suggested person, Rebecca, appeared in her "people you might know" list and she didn't dig in to figure out who it was until after that happened. What isn't clear to me is if the investigation into the PYMK suggestions was because of the appearance of Rebecca in Ms. Hill's list, or if she was discovered as a suggestion during the course of an unrelated investigation into how the PYMK suggestions list is generated. Owing to the types of research-driven journalism I've come in across from her in the past, it was probably the latter, but I didn't read anything that directly stated it (or if it was, I missed it).
