Technically speaking, of course they do. Google can also read all your emails.
But I'm not sure Facebook would bother doing so. Hopefully the privacy policy regarding anonymous login specifies what they will or won't track.
- dec0dedab0de 12y agoIt is in their direct interest to do so. They could use that information to better target ads, and to keep an eye on the popularity of potential acquisitions.
- gohrt 12y agoIt's not in their interest to get sued for violating their privacy policy.
- walterbell 12y agoIn some contexts, Facebook is "reading" the offline behavior of users. Why would they not take advantage of online data, when it could generate revenue in some contexts?
- meowface 12y agoThat's true, but there is a difference between offline/not-logged-in and actually "anonymous". If they're offering something which they advertise as being anonymous, there is an explicit understanding that things you do won't be reflected when you login to your primary accounts. They may very well take advantage of it though; they certainly are able to do so legally. We'll see what the policy looks like.
