Ask HN: Can Facebook access iPhone photo without user uploading them to Facebook?

1 pointsby trappedalmost 9 years ago
This could be very much a rare coincidence. I saw Facebook advertising Sphero BB8 right after I took photos from my iPhone. I did not upload these photos to Facebook or post comments on Facebook regarding BB8. Is Facebook accessing iPhone photos without permission and uploading them for advertisement purposes?<p>Those who are interested in trying out. Please take a photo of well known product ( BB8, Lays Chips, Parrot Drone etc) but don&#x27;t upload it to Facebook or don&#x27;t post any comments regarding these things on Facebook. Check if you see advertisements regarding above items in your FB feed.
