They can for sure collect anonymous data even if you don't have an
account.
The IP for my house geocodes exactly to my house, that correlated with
other public records could be used to identify me even if I didn't have
a Facebook account.
Hypothetically of course. I have no idea what they really do.

I think "how is that done" "what is collected" "did I approve this" are
all questions that will only ever be answered by future subpoenas.
I would bet if using chrome to visit facebook, you share more than youd
prefer, google also has you accept a TOS
FB and google are thick as thieves

any of their services. I stay as far away as possible. I don't twitter

yes you are, and he skirted that specific question may times because
of the liability in doing that without you having agreed to the TOS.
Alot depends on what level of access FB has outside its app, when you
accept terms on a mobile device you all but give FB ownership of your
phone, so every persons whos accepted the FB TOS is pretty much a

I've been casually following the FB bruhahah, and one of the topics
that comes up is about whether FB follows what they call
"non-users", but whenthey describe non-users, they refer to FB users
that just aren't logged in.
Well I'm a non-user, but I don't have a FB account at all, nor do I
use FB. Now I have occasionally followed a link to FB, but my
interaction with their service could be described as "almost"
non-existent. Am I a FB "non-user" or not. And if I am, what sort of
data would they be collecting on me if I don't even go there or have
an account?
