This codebook results from a collaboration between Facebook and Social Science One, originally prepared for Social Science One grantees. It describes the first URLs dataset, including its scope, structure, and fields. The data describes web page addresses (URLs) that have been shared on Facebook starting January 1, 2017 through to and including February 19, 2019. URLs are included if shared by more than on average 100 (+ Laplacian noise (mean = 0, scale = 5) to minimize information leakage) unique accounts with public privacy settings. We have also post-processed the URLs (as detailed below) to remove potentially private and/or sensitive data.
