Random evil thought: could you sell your Facebook account to hackers? You've built up a multi-year reputation as a "known good" account; that'd be incredibly valuable to someone trying to generate cross-correlations between your interests and their product. After all, the whole reason Facebook is worth $300B is because they have all this data on their users; since it's your data to begin with, shouldn't you be able monetize it just the way Facebook does?

I'll start the bidding at 33 cents.

It could sour your relationships with actual friends. But if you're ok with them being deceptively advertised to, maybe they weren't such close friends to begin with...

Unfriend the ones you care about a few weeks beforehand.

I don't think "hackers" in this context is the right term for people who game the advertising/metadata industry. Maybe "independent advertisers"?

More likely the hacker would rather use it to steal your identity and f. you over very, very hard. Much more lucrative than spoofing with a "known-good" account, right? So you'd really, really better trust those hackers you're selling to.

It seems that would be confusing (at best) for your contacts that remain on Facebook.

[nostrademons]

Presumably you would tell them via backchannels (or even Facebook) that you were doing it.

Someone needs to make a good market for this.

Already exists for Twitter and reddit accounts. I'm sure spammers will pay for good fb accounts too.
