    In the summer of 2017, I asked Facebook if it used signals from "third parties such as data brokers" for friend recommendations. Kicking myself for not recognizing the evasion in their answer. 1.

        Facebook's continuing purposeful evasion to explaining how People You May Know works is infuriating. Thank god for leakers and lawsuits. (And thank you for the shout-out to my reporting, NYT.)

        Oh and, duh, a link to the NYT. It's a wild story that you should definitely read. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/18/technology/facebook-privacy.html …

        I’m sure they consider “deals with integration partners” to be completely different than “buying from data brokers” 😕

        I knew it did. Despite not allowing Facebook to have access to my phone, not placing my number on the platform. I was still getting suggested friends from ppl I just met, and we had no friends in common.

        I deleted facebook years ago the day after I met my kid's new baseball coach and it showed up in suggested friends! I knew it was reading my email! So scary! #FUfacebook
