Haha, hahaha. What a weird system they have. Maybe if the software engineers there took a few classes on ethics or read a few books there would be less of this weirdness.
Facebook said the label was intended to only identify historical treason. “Treason was included as a category, given its historical significance. Given it’s an illegal activity, we’ve removed it as an interest category,” a spokesperson said.

It would be great if users were aware of how FB and other platforms tagged their users to advertisers. I imagine that the tag list is somewhat protected info?

Probably under "proprietary data" or "trade secrets". Besides, if people could see in real-time how Facebook tagged them for advertisers, do you think they'd continue to tolerate Facebook?

You can find out your tags if you dig through some menus in the settings area. You can't find out how they do it, but my guess is it has a lot to do with what you share, what you like, groups...

I used to be tagged as interested in sabotage and subterfuge. You can dig through some menus and find what they have tagged you as, clear out their tags, and prevent future categorization.

<sarcasm>Ethics, history, and the humanities are irrelevant to STEM students and people seeking STEM careers.</sarcasm>
Your code's defective. It's supposed to ignore HTML tags it doesn't recognize instead of throwing exceptions. :)
I don't get paid enough to deal with Facebook cancer.

Here is one tutorial how, from the anarchotech collective, Good HousekeepingI used to be tagged as interested in sabotage and subterfuge. You can dig through some menus and find what they have tagged you as, clear out their tags, and prevent future categorization.
If they call it treason, you're doing it wrong.
