" Is it still accessing information on the phone without being tied directly to you? "

I don't know. I do not have FB. But the fact, that I still have to have the app no matter what I want, illustrates my point, that I really do not own or controll this phone. But it works reliable, was affordable - AND I can remove the batterie.

And I do it regulary, because then I can be sure, it is really turned off.

Otherwise I kind of assume everything I do with it or around it, is potentially recorded.

So yes, I really, really want a phone that I can trust, even if it is turned on.

I can assure you I'm not asking as an advocate for accepting FB to be pre-installed. I'm asking to know truly how vile it really is. At this point, I assume FB knows enough about everyone to be able to ID them without confirmation via logged in FB app.
