This is me. I just discovered that Facebook has labeled me “liberal” (red arrow). I never told it what I considered myself to be. It just decided that. I am sure it used this when it sold my information to the Trump Campaign through Cambridge Analytica.
It also knows I have an iPhone 6 Plus (green arrow). Never told it that, either.
And most scary, it knows I am a frequent traveler (purple arrows) and that I just came back from a trip two weeks ago.
What I want to know: What does it know and track that it does NOT tell me on the site?
