As long as you are logged into services such as FB, they track your web activity. I guess each person will have to decide if that's a good reason to log out or if it's paranoia.

It depends a lot on how you use your phone and computer. If no one else has access to your PC, then I don't see a downside to leaving yourself logged into Facebook. If someone else has access to your PC then they could access your Facebook account without your knowledge. this could even just be inadvertent, e.g. they think they're doing something from their Facebook account when in fact they're still logged on to your Facebook account. The same thing could be said for other on line accounts as well. The same holds true for your iPhone, with the added concern that it's mobile, so it could be lost or left around somewhere. If you have a pass code set up, so no one else could get into your phone, then again, you're probably safe. If not then you run the risk of someone picking up your phone, unlocking it and getting into your Facebook and other accounts. Again, I don't think there's any paranoia here, but it does deserve some consideration on how you use your devices and who has physical access to them. This is something each person needs to determine for themselves, and there is no one answer fits all. This is all just my opinion.
