 Who sent this from their Android phone? You forgot to sign your post.

My understanding is that Facebook is all algorithms that decide what 
you "want" to see with the exception that if someone 
complains/reports a post (easy to do - there's a button.) At that 
point another algorithm comes into play and there may or may not be a 
human involved.

On the other hand if we stick to sailing, I doubt they'd be interested.

I'm more concerned about FB putting my personal information out there 
and mining my posts for marketing purposes and about hackers trying 
to get at that personal data. I don't put much out there but FB 
groups do expose their members to a wider audience.

Best,
Mary Lou
