It's still connected to the graph if you have another account accessed from the same IP. They know there's a connection from that account to yours.

Don't create a burner account. Facebook's TOS is to lock burners and require an ID to unlock, so you'd be locking all your games out of access.

Again, I've had and technically logged into both accounts concurrently for at least the past 3-5 years. So unless this only applies to new accounts, I have yet to have either one locked out.

That's why I was wondering if it's officially confirmed somewhere.

This isn’t a 3-5 year old phenomenon.

I don’t think there are many people that are cognizant in how to break their social graph.

I’ve seen a few other hackernews comments corroborating it over the past year. But it isn't a common case so Facebook gets away with it.

You can sue them. I think this is what it will take. I've got an orphaned GOG account that they are not responding to me about, and I am definitely entitled to access those games.

[aspaceman]

True. It's all within your rights. I'm just trying to say they really don't like burners and won't make it easy to go that route. (If I had to guess)

[cobbzilla]

You sue; they restore access to moot the lawsuit, but then tie your real info listed on the suit to your account, no longer making it anonymous. Win-win? /sarc

[R0b0t1]

No, you could probably sue for access that does not need an account esp. if they have gravely changed the terms since you signed up.

They're going to lose their games if they don't make any account anyway. So if they feel strongly about not making a proper account, they might as well try with a burner one and see how long it lasts?
