If I sign up using phony info and use a new email which is only for fb, always use a vpn and a browser (chromium) that I only use for fb can I be anonymous? I ask because there a couple groups that I’d like to join that only use fb. Thanks.

      All VPN does is change your IP. They track more than your IP to fingerprint you. So while VPN removes one vector, there are plenty of other to identify and correlate a unique profile.

        Ok, like? If he uses a browser just for Facebook and a VPN, what other way does Facebook have to track him from there to the other surfing that he does from another browser?
