=============================

How 50,000 ways  ?

I suppose the author must have computed the “ Permutations and Combinations “ of the following “ Variable Factors “ mentioned in the article :

DATA  THAT  USER  PROVIDES :

*  Age / Gender / Home Address / Friends / Education / Occupation

DATA WHICH Facebook COLLECTS FROM USER ACTIVITY :

*    What vehicle you own

*    Where you take your vacation

*    What Gadgets you use

*    If you are in relationship or had a break-up

*    Who lives in your house

*    Your political leanings

*    Your work place

*    Restaurants you visit

*    Businesses you interact with

*    Your online shopping

*    Your Credit history

*    Your budget for a new home

Just 50,000 ways to target you ?

I get a feeling that the total number of “ Permutations and Combinations “ run into MILLIONS , if you consider ALL the VARIABLES that I have listed in my following blogs :
