Only if you are forced to use facebook. Its more of a problem in developing nations. I'm glad Myanmar finally gave Facebook the boot as the default portal to the internet.

When the day comes that we are forced to use a social media platform... heh, we'll all just roll over and start using it. Revolution takes too much effort.

Unfortunately Facebook does its best to track those of us who don't use it as well (even if their information on us ends up being less comprehensive than the information they have on their actual users).

And you can be pretty effective at that tracking if your contacts use facebook. Since they have access to your call logs they know how frequently you communicate with someone. And people that communicate frequently share general interests.
