This is awful news Al. Facebook isn't just notorious for tracking every movement on the web, but those who mine Facebook's data could develop some pretty nasty algorithms that could get them a denied loan later:
If it's free on the internet then you're not the customer; rather, you're the product
I do use Facebook, randomly, though I have some pretty strict privacy settings. This county is so politically charged my personal policies are 'if I don't know your parents, then we can't be friends on Facebook until after you graduate'. Seems to work OK so far.
