Meta probably has your email and private phone number!

I'm not the product, I've never used them, they stole my details from someone who happened to have my email and private phone number, without MY consent.

That is the problem ... you are relying on others to tick a box to say FB can't skim their contacts ... but as a contact, you have no say.

yep, that is why they will be in trouble, I am not suggesting its right, just that it is!
