BPDex still keeps in contact with my family after a year

I have been NC for more than a year-My exBPD was never close with my family yet they make small talk on social networking sites, like and comment each other frequently.I don't know what to make of this? I recently just found this out.
My exBPD also added my family on such websites months after we broke up.
Is this to keep tabs? To annoy me? To show off to my family in hopes they'll tell me?
Has this happened toAnyone here?

Deleted,
The world of internet has destroyed 'privacy' all together. I have my exbf family and friends on my fb account. We all know how this provides information to others and we or others could misuse it too. Through his mom's profile I could guess or get updates about him... .
The intention may nog be to harm us or our people but we why take chances that could lead to buy trouble, and we are talking about pwBPD here. My family immediately unfriended him, and we don't have any common friends. Although I have not delisted his friends as they were very good to me... . still reconsidering my decision to keep his friends. I removed his family though.
We could avoid unnecessary pain and worries if we could cut all contact with them directly or indirectly.

Thanks for replying, you're right there is no privacy.
I would like to tell those family members to ignore my
ExBPD and block if possible but Im not that close with them and I don't want to waste
Time and energy discussing my past relationship, as to their intentions I don't know.

Maybe it would be best to tell them... . something, at least.
Just so it won't linger in your mind at all.
I think family members just do that as a common courtesy.

Confetti,
You're right plus most of my family is pretty much oblivious as to how it really was being with my exBPD. Thank you for writing.
