>Facebook will now display ads to web users who are not members of its social network, the companyannouncedThursday, in a bid to significantly expand its online ad network. AsThe Wall Street Journalreports, Facebook will use cookies, "like" buttons, and other plug-ins embedded on third-party sites to track members and non-members alike. The company says it will be able to better target non-Facebook users and serve relevant ads to them, though its practices have come under criticism from regulators in Europe over privacy concerns.

Reave up those Ad Blockers anon.

>implying

When you're not a part of the system it's actually easier to identify you, since you don't blend in anymore.

Now facebook thinks it can target ads to you even though you never became a member.

They'll never get me, anon.

Now that they're in heat and people are beginning to lose interest (even normies, what with "it's ruining my life") they are getting pretty greedy. I wish them to perish.

How exactly do they plan on tracking/identifying me?
>>
Privacy Badger
Block all Facebook connections and cookies.

Fucking CIA niggers

WHY, JUST WHY. This should be illegal, holy shit, this breaks so much privacy. Good thing you can block them with ublock but it won't be long until they find another way around.

No need, I already blocked them ages ago.

Don't forget to block linkedin, instagram, twitter, basically any large internet company
>>
>>54804558
Frankly, this is in no way different from what other ad serving companies are doing.
>>
>>54804558
So just don't use facebook any more. Duh.
>>
101% odds they have been doing this all along. Now is just the point when companies outside the cabal get in.
>>
Pretty sure they were always doing this, creating an internal profile for those who didn't register
>>
>>54805142
They're not targeting neckbeard autists like you

Can I use uBlock Origin to stop Facebook from tracking me, even if I'm logged in? If not, what can?
