Are Blind profiles connected with Facebook!?

While reviewing my Off Facebook activity in the FB app I realised that Blind was listed as submitting my activity to FB. Further the highest number of interactions submitted to Facebook came from Blind! Does this mean this app isn't as anonymous as we believe and it is In fact linked to our FB accounts? What about everyone else? Here's how to check: 1. Go to FB settings, 2. Scroll down to Your FB Information. 3. Click on “Off-FB Activity”.You can see the list in “Manage Your Off-FB Activity”. 4. To shut it down, click on 'More Options' in the same settings. 5. Go into “Manage Future Activity” and TURN IT OFF. 6. While you are there, make sure you clear the history as well.

You’re right, thanks for raising the awareness, kind Blinder. Of course, everyone by now should already know that Blind isn’t anonymous, but I didn’t know it was that bad. FYI, my last interaction there was listed a few months ago, which is also around when I migrated from Android to iOS. I doubt it’s a coincidence. I don’t use Blind or FB on any other devices and I have very strict privacy protections in place.

Are you saying that it's getting logged through the FB app on your phone?

Amazon JohnnyBoy2 OP Apr 20, 2020

If you log into FB it shows that Blind has been submitting data about your activity on Blind to Facebook. Id assume its sent via FB's graph API or something not app to app

Got it. Don't have it on my phone anyway so it's not an issue for me.
