Alwin Alcott Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 not sure this is discussed or asked before.. if it is it's long ago i think: why are there FB trackers on nearly all topics? .. not on the sections but in the actual topics, together with normal surf tracking it's peanuts to match things to RL accounts on FB .

MarcCross Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 wasn't there some talk a few years ago that FB didn't want 'non-human' accounts Like Second life, IMVU etc? or are they just trying to market to all of us? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume they're getting less picky since the young things deserted them for cooler places. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more if someone reports it. SL FB accounts have been a thing for almost as long as FB has been out. They have no real way of knowing if the person is real or virtual other then photos and if they got legit contact info. on you usually they leave you pretty much alone. besides that way to many accounts for them to even try and police anyway. lol 21 minutes ago, Erwin Solo said: I don't see any.

All they will see is gamer news anyway. So feel free to track away. lol Edited November 8, 2019 by Velk Kerang Corrections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And remember: there is always a lot more truth in jest than people realize. For everyone else: Linden Lab has always had a Facebook bug throughout their web sites ever since they started the whole social thing from years ago. Google analytics is here, too and we all already know that Google tracks a lot more than just "page visit count". The Brave Browser I link o above is a Google Chrome browser with all the Google parts stripped out. It's never too late to start taking control of your privacy, so it doesn't;t hurt to give it a go. Or, you can remain apathetic and just complain about it, like the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurshie Muromachi Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I noticed that if you have third-party scripts and/or frames turned on in uBlock Origin, a facebook.net domain will show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
