46 People Are Sharing the Things They Know Must Be True But Have No Way of Proving

Who among us hasn’t “stalked” someone on social media? We don’t mean the scary, serious kind of stalking. We just mean lurking on your ex-boyfriend’s new girlfriend’s Instagram account to satisfy our insatiable need for gossip. We’ve all done it, but we feel these social platforms are getting back at us for lurking through their algorithms. 

Do you know the “Suggested Friends” section of Facebook? Yeah, those people probably stalked your profile. While Meta is tight-lipped about its algorithms, most of us suspect that Facebook bases friend suggestions on profiles that recently interacted with yours. There’s no way to know for sure if this is true, but informal evidence proves it for many users.
