Re: Conclusions?
"Just because you've never opened a Facebook account, doesn't mean they don't know anything about you."
Is that the new "Just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you" ?
"I have never signed up to Facebook, but I'm sure they know something about me"
Quite. And as I've mentioned before, since signing up to Facebook again (long after "deleting" the old account) - and this time with a different address etc - it's interesting to see what shows up in my profile that hasn't been (directly) provided to them by me.
In particular, I'm looking at the 'advertising settings' which shows something from my phone, even though the Facebook application has never been anywhere near it - and here we see something very wrong. (I suspect Facebook may have randomly added these because of a lack of real data - but their wording says otherwise!)
