Why is Facebook spamming me with topics I'm posting about on here? I post about the name John. An hour later I'm been invited to join groups with the Apostle John and the such like. ( I'd suspect a dns attack from doogh or nat if they were bright enough). This isn't the first time. Also WTF is Facebook spamming me anyway with stuff from my work computer when I never go near it on here. I can only think that I use CUK on own and work PCs and its spying or something? The other thing is I don't even use FB, I had an account in 2005 decided it was tulip and stopped using it. Although kept the account name to prevent others using it.

But I discovered nothing else but depraved, excessive superstition. Pliny the younger -
Do you have a better example than "John" because really, that's hardly conclusive. Like you posted about your new Dyson Whizmatic and then got ads for it?
If you're not on FB, how are you getting spammed by it? Emails?

On its own it not conclusive granted, I've deleted all the others but this just seems too co-incidental. I'm not really that fussed otherwise I wouldn't have posted here. Just seems a little spooky.But I discovered nothing else but depraved, excessive superstition. Pliny the youngerComment

It's probably the 5G chip in your head - FB knows what you're thinking, and if it's legal (unlikely for most on here ) they'll try and flog it to you...His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment
