> You can guarantee Tim Cook has a bunch of friends, grandmas, etc that have no idea how to use their phones and have 400 apps installed all syphoning off Tim's contact details

But how do those apps know it's THE Tim Cook and not one of dozens of other guys named Tim Cook? Also, what if, and this is usually the case, most people don't have you as "Tim Cook" in their phonebooks, but as "Big Baws", "Honey Bunny" or "Timmeh 12 inches uncut"?
