[dba-Tech] How to find out everything Facebook knows about you

[John Bartow]

"There's also a Security section tracking IP addresses, devices and browsers you logged in from with dates and timestamps.

The Ads section is very interesting. It contains a list of Ad Topics you are being targeted for based on interests gleaned from Facebook pages you liked.

There's also a list of the recent ads you clicked on and any advertisers that have your contact information. You can find (and remove) additional ads and ad topics you are being targeted for by visiting: https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/.

The amount of data Facebook can collect is admittedly staggering. For regular Facebook users, who've been on the platform for some time, downloading and going through one's digital footprint can definitely make one a little squeamish (and not just because of your status messages from 2008 that seemed so witty back in the day!).

Daunting as the experience might be, being aware of what information of yours is being collected is the first step to securing it."
