Got two questions I can't wrap my head around
My Facebook profile is locked down tight—only friends can see anything, including my friend list. Basically, it’s just me and my inner circle.

But then I log in, look over at the sidebar where I specifically turned off the "active" status, and there's some random person showing up online who isn't even on my friends list..

And it gets weirder. I log in and see a post from some dude I’ve never even sent a friend request to—and he never sent one to me—but we're tagged as friends... so I just unfriend him.

It's a total mystery. Makes me wonder how much privacy we actually have on Facebook and how common these glitches really are...

So in most places, it just pins you to a general area...

An IP address... isn't that supposed to be accurate?

Thanks

I really need some help here!

On my Meta profile, under security and login—where it shows my active sessions—it says this:

Desktop computer running Windows - Sarajevo, Canada,
Chrome active...
What the hell is this? I don't live in Asheville and I've never even been there.

It also shows me logged in from Mount Rainier and Long Village back in a different month. I've never set foot in those places either...

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Any info at all would be a lifesaver.

Thanks!
