At this point I have no pity for people who continuously feel violated by Facebook.

Data hygiene is both the responsibility of users & social media cooperations.

I still wonder why people rely on the kindness of strangers (the people that run the social networks) trying to make money off them. & then start crying foul when they are treated like garbage.

Simply don't; - Submit data you find sensitive. - Use bonus credentials where feasible - Deny app access to your mic, location, contacts, camera & calendar - Delete your account if you have substitutes for the features Facebook offers

...and if a single person (or company) with your number in their phone allows Facebook to access their contacts, FB has your phone number anyway.
