Solution? Facebook closed the API. And now people complain that Facebook is a silo and they hold onto your data and they don't allow 3rd party apps to access it.
Facebook discovers these kind of issues on a regular basis. The idea that they’ve clamped down on this type of thing is the joke of 2019.
However, the main question is: why would you ever give your time to such a toxic platform especially when it's explicitly working against you like in this case? Just move on and give them the finger.
Because a bunch of people you know are on the toxic platform.
not how it works for me! i have friends on fb that i haven't talked to or seen since high school. i don't use fb proper but it's good to know that it remembers everyone so i don't have to. i guess it goes the other around as well.
There is something wrong with this for me.. If you don't remember people, are they really worth kepeing around ?
It is a great way to reach someone you want to get in touch with after a really long time, but that scenario is far more rare than people claim when they speak of the 'magic of facebook'.
How in the world are you ever going to know if you never contact them again?
Did you ask this back in 2008?
As someone who was ridiculed, outcasted and made fun at uni for not using social media because I didn’t want to submit my data online, it’s finally nice to find people are actually starting to realise this; just twelve years too late.
But Twitter? Pretty much nobody uses it for day-to-day communication, so you can opt-out with no consequences.
Still, it's a shame it took them so long to implement a proper 2FA.
Worse still, they used the numbers provided for ad targeting.
