At this point it not about passive collection, corporations are going to extreme ends to get our data.

I am interested in what people are doing to enforce their privacy while using the web.

I have some things in place, looking to compare with the community.

is the Facebook app still able to receive the fbp cookie if it is in another profile or user? what if it lacks background network access?

It can cross those boundaries, but probably cannot delay messages to send later. Probably.

So it received the messages any time that both the browser and Facebook app are active at the same time, regardless of usual barriers that would block this.

what if it lacks background network access?

That should stop it cold.
