Want to know how many posts you&#8217;ve made, ever? You can find that. What about every photo you&#8217;ve uploaded? You can find that, too. Or what about every video you&#8217;ve watched, every &#8220;recognized&#8221; device you&#8217;ve used to log in, every major settings change you made, every time someone tagged you to wish you &#8220;Happy birthday,&#8221; and every Friend Request you ever received, sent, accepted, or ignored? Yes, all that information is available for you to find, as well. <\/p>\n<p>But knowing what Facebook knows about you _from_ Facebook is, if anything, a little stale. You made your own account, you know who your Facebook friends (mostly) are, and you were in control of the keyboard when you sent those comments. <\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s far more interesting is learning what Facebook knows about you from everywhere _else_ on the web and in the real world. <\/p>\n<p>While it may sound preposterous, Facebook actually collects a great deal of information about you even when you&#8217;re not using Facebook, and even if you don&#8217;t have the app downloaded on your smartphone. As Geoffrey Fowler, reporter for The Washington Post, wrote when he first started digging into his own data:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Even with Facebook closed on my phone, the social network gets notified when I use the Peet\u2019s Coffee app. It knows when I read the website of presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg or view articles from The Atlantic. Facebook knows when I click on my Home Depot shopping cart and when I open the Ring app to answer my video doorbell. It uses all this information from my not-on-Facebook, real-world life to shape the messages I see from businesses and politicians alike.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Today, on the Lock and Code podcast, host David Ruiz takes a look at his own Facebook data to understand what the social media company has been collecting about him from _other_ companies. In his investigation, he sees that his Washington Post article views, the cars added to his online &#8220;wishlist,&#8221; and his purchases from PlayStation, APC, Freda Salvador, and the paint company Backdrop have all trickled their way into Facebook&#8217;s database. <\/p>\n<p>Tune in today to listen to the full episode. <\/p>\n<p>_Show notes and credits:_  <\/p>\n<p>Intro Music: \u201cSpellbound\u201d by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)  <br \/>Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License  <br \/>http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/  <br \/>Outro Music: \u201cGood God\u201d by Wowa (unminus.com)<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p>**Listen up\u2014Malwarebytes doesn\u2019t just talk cybersecurity, we provide it.**<\/p>\n<p>Protect yourself from online attacks that threaten your identity, your files, your system, and your financial well-being with our exclusive offer for Malwarebytes Premium for Lock and Code listeners.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/blog\/podcast\/2025\/06\/what-does-facebook-know-about-me-lock-and-code-s06e11\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"display: inline-block; color: white; padding: 10px 20px; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 4px;\">View Advisory Details<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Security Update News Update Information Title What does Facebook know about me?
