Let's be honest. The company won't admit to it, but of COURSE they are.
Remember, Facebool was founded on the premise of invading your privacy, and have gotten worse ever since. They're not suddenly going to stop fir any reason.

Let’s not also forget that Zuckerfuck stole facebook. He was hired to finish a project, and lied to the clients telling them he was still working on it while he was deploying it to his own servers. The company was founded by a shitbag thief, who is completely devoid of normal human emotions and ethics. Those clients sued him and were awarded a few million dollars, which is pretty pathetic considering the value of the company. Anyway, of course they’re lying. They were founded on lying and stealing, and that has been their mantra ever since.
Remember when Google glass came out and everyone freaked out on people wearing them.
Pepperidge farm remembers.
The answer is yes. I’m sure they also pour through all of it with their AI looking for things to add to their marketing profile of you.
