I would have more respect for what he was saying if he wasn't acting like a 5 year old. What he's saying is right, and he's got an excellent point, but be a fucking adult.

I've always been very paranoid about facebook and always created an account under a fake email address and used a "fake name" Like my nickname, or my mother's maiden name etc. But then I found out that Facebook created 'shadow profiles' where if your friend has your mobile number in their phone, with your name attached to it, and they have facebook.... they create a shadow profile based on your friend's contact info on you. Say they have your birthday in their phone? Your email address? Facebook has that too. Based off these shadow profiles and the info your friend is blabbing about you (with nice uploaded drunk pics of you), Facebook and whoever else is creating quite the little archive of information on you.

Literally the only reason why I have a facebook account at the minute, is because I'm on Tinder. Once I'm in a relationship, both accounts will be deleted.

....a nd once your facebook shadow account is established. the machine huristics kick in and that insidious little facebook login tracking cookie that is on about 70% or all websites, tracks you, traps your info and updates your shadow profile, so they know far more about you, then just what your friends post....
