One of two things happens.
A) An algorithm flags your newly-created account as "inauthentic" and now you have to submit a copy of your driver's license to Facebook just to use a piece of consumer electronics you bought.
B) A different algorithm puts the pieces together and deduces that your burner account is the same identity as the real Facebook account you stopped using years ago or perhaps even "deleted." Nothing escapes the big-data inferences of The Graph.
- t0mbstone 6y agoI don't know... Facebook hasn't detected a single one of my 6 fake facebook accounts, and I've had them for years. I have been using one of them with my Quest ever since I got it, and they still haven't caught on. Maybe I'm slipping through their net because my accounts are old?
- GekkePrutser 6y agoYes you are. They scrutinise new accounts much more now.
