    I'm still pissed off that I've never had a facebook. I never gave them any info about me. I gave them no reason to have a profile on me.

    Yet because OTHER people have facebook, they know my name, my address, my phone number. I don't know if they can identify me in pictures that other people post, but it wouldn't surprise me.

    That shouldn't be allowed. I did not consent.

    Correct. And the same is true for the mobile phones, carriers, and a slew of apps that all look at contacts. They know who you are and who your friends and family are.
