    Facebook absolutely builds ghost profiles for people who don’t have a Facebook profile. You see all of those “Like” buttons on non-Facebook websites? Those are cookies that are essentially tracking you. They may not have your first/last name or other personal data as a regular profile, but they can build a pretty damn good composite of you.
