Facebook Users Switched On Their Reading Lamps in October

Comics and historical fiction were among Topics to Watch for the month

Facebook users sought to keep the noise down in October, as active noise control was one of research arm Facebook IQ’s Topics to Watch for the month.

Conversation about active noise control—and associated topics Best Buy, Bluetooth, cell phone, headphones, Lightning (connector), microphone, noise (electronics), noise-canceling headphones, tablet computer and wireless—shot up 8.2 times compared with October 2018 and five times versus September, driven largely by men 18 through 49.

Facebook IQ wrote, “A form of noise cancellation technology and a common feature of high-end headphones, active noise control blocks unwanted noise by producing frequencies that cancel out external sound.
