A Tampa-based TikTok creator who goes by Emlegs says she opened Facebook to a notification she’d never seen before. The app was telling her she’d earned something called a fan badge on someone else’s profile, and at first she had no clue what that meant.
In a video posted to her account, Emlegs said she turned to ChatGPT to figure it out, saying, “my heart fell out of my a** when I read that, cause I’m sure you can imagine who the f**k I’m stalking on Facebook.” According to Emlegs, checking someone’s profile too often, or “engaging with someone’s profile a little bit too often,” is enough for Facebook to decide you qualify as a fan.
