Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible

  I’m still pissed off that I’ve never had a facebook. I never gave them any info about me. I gave them no reason to have a profile on me.

  Yet because OTHER people have facebook, they know my name, my address, my phone number. I don’t know if they can identify me in pictures that other people post, but it wouldn’t surprise me.

  That shouldn’t be allowed. I did not consent.

    Correct. And the same is true for the mobile phones, carriers, and a slew of apps that all look at contacts. They know who you are and who your friends and family are.

    That’s security, not privacy.

      How much privacy do you have when someone has your account password?

        You have none, because your security has been compromised. This is a flaw. Poor privacy is intentional.
