I did, more than a decade ago. Do you think they stopped? How would I know there is no shadow profile being constantly updated?

It's apparently not my data and privacy and I have no say in it at all when someone uploads their goddamn contact list to these frickin' crooks. Is that your understanding too?

So This solution is not a solution. This solution only works if we stop other people from using it. How's that going to work? Well it isn't.

Cool? Now welcome to the "what regulation is appropriate" debate because this is clearly an example of market failure, same as national defence, same as national parks, same as pollution, same as any other. The sooner we treat "...using computers" exactly the same as any other industry the better. This is nuts.
