If you have a 100 friends, and each of your friends has 100 friends, Facebook will start drawing your attention to them to see if you know them. If you are friends with another hobbyist and he is not discreet enough to not be friends with a provider, then she might someday show up on your page as "someone you might know". I wouldn't make a big deal about it and draw attention to yourself.

JK.

If you have ANY providers or ANY connections whatsoever that may be even a secondary connection to someone on your connections, it will be recommended to you.

It's a small world, and everybody knows someone you know most likely. Hopefully no one will figure it out.

Also, lately Facebook has been taking trigger words and websites from my ipad notes, I've noticed. I wrote a checklist from a music store, with prices and specific items I was looking at. Boom. I opened Facebook later and had a list of ads pertaining to that and my grocery list lol. Sadly, no porn advertisements.

This world cares about money, not your personal business - unless it will make them money. So they'll use the access to tailor your page with ads that may tempt you to buy products. There are companies who buy and sell space on each and every computer, but it's all computerized. There isn't someone sitting behind your screen staring at you. (Hopefully, unless yu have a stalker or something lol.)

Recommended to me, meaning recommended to my 'ho' persona as a potential contact. I can't imagine that my clients were seeking me out and trying to add a ho to their linkedin connections, so I'm assuming that the site somehow mined their email contacts, and added me without their knowledge.  

Oddly enough, there was a pre-existing account on linkedin, tied to my ho-mail, that was set up without my knowledge. I had a profile set up and everything...apparently, I'm from another country and went to some international business school?? Who knew. (I left all of that stuff up...thought it might add to the intrigue factor)

A few years back, I used the same browser for everything. I noticed that fellow escorts and clients were being recommended to me on Facebook as 'people I might know'. So I started to use separate browsers for ho and non-ho stuff. I also eschew social media and ho-mail on my phone. It's no big deal to wait until I'm home to check Facebook (I ended up using it much less). I waste much less time. Unless, I'm posting here...lol.

The NSA has nothing on them.

(An ironic double entendre if ever there was.)

Facebook knows what is good for you. It is God. God talks to Facebook and it talks to you.

Technology at its best

I have clients' phone numbers programmed in the phone I use the Facebook app. If they gave me their real phone number and they have the Facebook installed on that phone OR if they have that phone number in their Facebook, they show up on my suggested friends.

Not sure if it works the other way around, but I think I'm seeing escorts in there too. There's no reason super hot local girls would be suggested to me. Most gals blur their face, so it's hard to say if I "know them" from emailing for references.

One client I really trust showed up in there, so I'm thinking I might give him a call to see if I'm in his suggested friends. He has my GV not my real phone number programmed in his phone.

If you ever used the "Find People You Email" feature on Facebook, then this happened.
