This is a guide on how to block Facebook from tracking your internet activity.
Did you know that if you are searching the internet,
Facebook tracks every step you take? Facebook does it to improve their personalized ads.
E.g. You search for nike t-shirt & will soon receive sponsored ads from nike in your newsfeed.
(We all know that no one bats an eye about Facebook knowing that you search for nike t-shirts, imagine other stuff you search)
