Facebook and the cost of keeping in touch.

I clicked onto a link a friend posted on FB and later ended up with a couple of notes from cousins commenting on the link. The link was stupid and not a NSFW site. Still, I don't need the big brother experience.
This morning I was researching motels for an upcoming trip and a banner comes up saying four of my friends have used the site. At first I thought it was a reaping scam but then their pictures came up.
So far I don't think my reputation has been harmed but what if they find out I go onto the GTAM site?
If I opt out of FB will I start seeing black SUVs following me?

You already know too much. Logout of everything and stay away from anything.

I purposely avoid FB and LinkedIn as much as possible for just those reasons. I had to laugh when I read about Sergey Brin crying about the loss of the "open and free" internet as Google and FB etc collect data on us without our permission or knowledge..
