I see the point, but if I upload my contract list the non compliance is mine (I didn't ask permission to each one of my contacts) or of Clubhouse (they asked me to do it)?

It should be blaringly obvious to Clubhouse that they don't have the right to even store most of this data, let alone use it for anything.

So even if you are at fault, I can't imagine that would help them a lot, if some data protection authority looked into this.

both, yours for sharing, clubhouse's for storing.
