See Who See Your Facebook Profile
Exactly what's strange is that even though the short article clearly mentions that there are no applications available that let you see that watched your profile, many of its visitors still publish remarks asking that can watch their profile. And hardly ever does a week pass that I do not likewise receive that inquiry on the T4L Facebook page as well as through e-mail.
Maybe individuals think something has altered in the last 3 years. So let me be clear: There is NO way for you to discover that has actually watched your account on Facebook. Right here is Facebook's reaction to this inquiry in their Help Facility.
Every once in a while I likewise get a remark from somebody that they have proof that Facebook does offer this performance because they looked at a person's profile and afterwards obtained a message or close friend demand from that person. I never see the details evidence they're describing, so I can not discuss exactly what they assume they're seeing. I assume it's feasible that if you check out someone's profile a lot, your name will turn up a great deal extra in places like the ticker or mutual friends' checklists, yet that's a far cry from showing somebody specifically who has been checking out their profile, when and also exactly how usually.
Currently, I'm the first individual to be cynical about any type of case Facebook makes about respecting their individuals' privacy (check out my current series on Facebook as well as Privacy). Yet I truly believe Facebook in this situation as well as assume they will certainly never permit this capability-- because it wouldn't be in their benefit to do so.
I assume there are lots of people who use Facebook primarily to look at accounts and also photos of other individuals, especially those they have an interest in or have actually broken up with or that are presently seeing people they've broken up with. Now, if Facebook were to start allowing people to see that had actually looked into their profiles, a lot of individuals may quite possibly erase their accounts as well as quit making use of FB entirely due to the fact that they do not want to be captured tracking. And also given that there seems to be some evidence that Facebook is already starting to shed users, specifically among the more youthful collection, they're not going to do something that will certainly drive more people away when that attribute has no certain worth to the company itself.
So in addition to re-confirming that you could not see who saw your profile, please consider this message another cautioning never to click on any type of web link that claims it will certainly help you do simply that. If you do, you're opening the door to having your account hacked and as a result encountering real hazards to your privacy.
