Facebook has somehow figured out that one of my profiles is directly tied to some of my credit card activity.
I wasn't being entirely careful about locking things down. And now I get some extremely specific ads, relating to a 30 day rolling window of recent purchases.
I'm trying to think of the best ways to poison and destroy this linkage, that was established some time after September. It may indeed be true that I just have to totally disconnect.
On some level, this is regrettable, only because Facebook absolutely monopolizes access to the updates some people choose to publicize for themselves, since those people know no other way to broadcast important information.
Mostly, these people are not geeks with technical fetishes. They don't have the slightest inkling about packets, ports, sockets, protocols. They don't understand that an iPhone does have a root file system. So facebook is it, and no distributed immitation cheese or diet margarine will replace their coca-cola brand social media.
