Facebook Under Fire for Spyware Ad System

It was believed that this sort of implied advertising that appeared to come from a friend was illegally using their likeness to shill for some product or another. All that seems minor now, however, compared to new reports that Facebook is actually tracking user’s web surfing habits, even when they’re signed off from the site.
