Facebook knows everything about me, apparently

[rogerzilla]

But they've got this wrong. Oh, so wrong.

That's what you get for 'liking' performance enhancing drugs...

Facebook are not to good at recognising connections or disconnections
I travelled to Edinburgh to attend a cycling meeting a couple of years ago, because of that they thought I might be interested in Edinburgh Kayak Club

Oh come on, ditch the false modesty, you even have a fanclub there.

DRAGO FAN CLUB GROUP

On second thoughts, if my Fan Club only had 183 members I 'd be keeping quiet about it too

If anyone who knows you uses facebook then Mr Z certainly knows you exist and will have a reasonable idea of your social circles.

Yes it does, unless you haven't used a web browser in the past 10 years.

My FB page keeps suggesting I might like stairlifts and planning my own funeral.

 

[Toshiba Boy]

Must admit I do get some startled silences from friends and family when I have to tell them, "No, honestly, I'm not on Facebook, never have been."

Perhaps I should start adding that me and my "CC mate" Drago, are, that's right, the only two homo sapiens that have never been on it.

 

[Oldhippy]

Me neither, I would rather be thrown down a flight of stairs.

Is this something that should bother me, and if so, why?

You can be as bothered or not bothered as you wish. There is no "should" involved. The point was only that people aren't as anonymous as they think.
