Earlier quoted context omitted.
Normally I'm in favor of the "don't use it, then" approach. But it doesn't work with Facebook, because you're on it whether you want to be or not. Even if you've studiously avoided using it, you most likely have friends who use it and have given Facebook enough knowledge to identify and track you.
True story. I created FB account in 2012 - when I needed to log in so I could access their API documentation. And what did I find? There was a 90% complete profile waiting for me. All my friends were already lined up, my personal data was already there, my photos were already there. And thus I learned to love the Big Brother.
You should have learned to fear and try to fight him.
