facebook does nothing besides match tons of contact list that idiots upload to their servers when they install any facebook app.
why does people think this is rocket science? even the supposedly clever people here try to imagine complex algorithms. geez. its 1:1 text match on phone numbers.
their genius move was getting enough idiots uploading their entire phone address book for free.
- micheljones 9y agoI do agree with your sentiment, but Facebook does a lot more than just that. They put a lot of effort into tracking sites you browse, their phone app slurps up any possible data to improve your profile, starting with location info, and going all the way to uploading photos from your camera gallery to Facebook, to be analyzed for face recognition.
