Facebook has quietly rolled out a new feature that automatically gives it access to your phone’s entire camera roll, even photos and videos you do not upload nor share. This means Facebook could use your private content for “suggestions” and targeted ads, without your explicit consent.
How to Turn It Off:
I. Log into your Facebook account
II. Tap the three lines at the top right of your profile
III. Click the gear icon at the top right
IV. In the search bar, type “camera”
V. Turn off “Get camera roll suggestions when you’re browsing Facebook”
VI. Turn off “Custom sharing suggestions from your camera roll”
