Off-Facebook Activity: Facebook is Tracking You With this New Feature

Have you ever thought if Facebook is tracking your activity over internet? What we now know is even horrifying.

Are you aware of a new feature that Facebook added since 1^st February 2020. According to this new feature which is your Off-Facebook Activity, Facebook will track what websites and applications you use even when you are not on Facebook.

Facebook has been monitoring and tracking what you do when you are offline and not on Facebook.

So if you are watching Tik Tok videos or booking flight or doing hotel reservations, Facebook has data of everything.

I suggest you to look now as you wont believe what they see.

Below are the steps with images. Please follow those steps one by one. I will show how to check this new feature and disable it on both the desktop and mobile application.
