Careful out there Facebook targets you with ads based on groups

Facebook is mining your medical gold!

If you access Facebook via an app called Friendly then you can block all of their advertising. I’ve been using it for years.

This may not work, they are mining the text (what you as a group member enter) and then using that to target folks with medical conditions.

May not stop data mining but you won’t see any adverts at all which is why I like it.

This will be Chapter 41 in the book I’m too lazy to write called I Quit Facebook Because of the 2016 Election When America Lost It’s Collective Mind: A Memoir.

Facebook is the internet version of sugar. It’s addictive, it makes people feel worse, behave worse and you don’t need it in your life. Since the start of the new year, I’ve been sugar free and social network free, and I’ve never felt healthier!

Delete it from your life and never look back

I’m safe. Never saw the point in having a Facebook account so I never signed up in the first place.
