Facebook Stalking consists of monitoring Facebook activities of Facebook users.
Like regular (cyber)stalking, Facebook stalking allows the stalker to secretly gather information about the stalkee but, unlike regular (cyber)stalking, Facebook stalking is not illegal as it's the stalkee self that spontaneously posts information online about him/herself.
As you might know, posting contents on Facebook (or anywhere else online) means publishing content.
Facebook stalking is generally accepted by the voyeuristic victims but sometimes they complain being *stalked*. This shows either ignorance in the use of these new media platforms (and in the law) or eagerness to accuse their neighbor of the very same evil they suffer from. In psychology this behavior is called projection.
In addition, being a Facebook user stalked for real or not, nobody can know it, due to strict Facebook rules which prevent users to know who visited their profile.

Get the Facebook Rash mug.Someone who used to have a full Facebook account, but ended up deleting it while still using Facebook Messenger to keep in contact with their friends. Just like a Force Ghost no longer exists but can manifest and communicate- a Facebook Ghost can still chat and participate in group chats, but has no profile to be viewed.
Daniel is a Facebook Ghost and can't be invited to the concert through the Facebook Event page, so the host had to use Messenger to send him the details.
"Hey why can't I check your profile? I didn't get any notifications for your birthday."
"Oh I'm a Facebook Ghost, I deleted my account but I still use messenger to hang out in the group chat. "

Get the Facebook Ghost mug.The act of amassing hundreds of friends over multiple years and then, in one day, posting multiple crotch-shots of yourself, sex pics of yourself and any offensive or racist comments on your Facebook profile for the sole purpose of seeing how many people will De-Friend you in a 24 hr. period.
After normal Facebooking for several years, I grew tired of the medium and decided to do some Extreme Facebooking, so I posted ten before-and-after photos of the night in which I laid a 'Hot Carl' on Ms. Madeleine Albright's chest and proceeded to Chili-dog her, losing 127 friends in the process.
