An easy way to collect all your profile information using built-in tools.
Brian Acton, one of the creators of WhatsApp, boycotts the social network and actively promotes the hashtag #deletefacebook. The scandal erupted when users learned that Facebook had leaked account data to Cambridge Analytica. The protest action has already been supported by many users, so in the near future, Mark Zuckerberg will face a severe headache.
What if you don't want to delete your account? You need to set up your profile correctly. And to check if there is anything superfluous about you on the social network, use the built-in tool. This is easy to do.
- Go to your page.
- Open the settings.
At the bottom you will see the inscription "Download a copy of your data from Facebook", click on it
In the new window, click "Create archive", enter the password and wait
After a while you will receive a notification, download the archive
When you open the index.html file, you will be taken to a kind of offline version of Facebook, where all your profile information will be categorized. They are on the left. For example, on the "Profile" page, you can see data about yourself: mail, address, your preferences. In general, everything that you indicated when filling out the questionnaire.
The "Contacts" page looks more interesting. Here are all the numbers from your phone book and, most surprisingly, the call history.
Everything is clear with the Chronicle. This tab contains your publications.
On the Friends page, you can see how many hearts you have broken by rejecting friendship requests. I’m here for a bit.
The item "Security" will tell you from which devices you entered your profile.
In the Ads tab, you can see the groups you are a member of, as well as advertisers with your contact information.
Of course, Mark Zuckerberg kept all the top-secret data for himself, but you can analyze your activity and think about what needs to be changed.
