I’ve heard multiple early Facebook employees brag about stalking users, checking out who is looking at who’s pictures… having a really good laugh about it. I couldn’t believe it but it was absolutely happening at FB in the early days and it didn’t seem isolated at all. I don’t know if it’s still happening but stalking is core DNA for Facebook.


The whole main application the company is named for was built for stalking so color me unsurprised.
