That's not true, they get all kinds of data from other sources, including stuff from your friends that they may not have even realized they shared (such as your phone number when FB slurped their phone's contacts list).
- ljw1001 8y agoand of course they track your movements across the web via their advertising platform and 'log-in-with-facebook' stuff.
- chrischen 8y agoYes but the sign in stuff is within your control too. Simply logout or delete the cookies, and don't use sign in with facebook. Simply having a facebook account (even under a pseudonym), doesn't mean you have to start using login with facebook. I try to use Facebook in the most minimal way possible—I have an account and can message people, but I don't use it for anything that I don't need it for. I try to ensure I get more out of it than it does from me. I don't voluntarily fill out my profile with more information than necessary.
