Look again. If you are using a FB mobile application on your mobile phone it is actually uploading the directory contents (phone numbers) of your phone into a location called CONTACTS. Checked it this morning and apparently this has been going on for a while as there were numbers in there from previous cell phones that I actually lost.

These are NOT visible to your other friends ... just you.

What is this mobile phone application you speak of? ;)

I’m about ready to abandon, facebook, google+, email, give up my FR account. I don’t have an Iphone, I might get rid of my pay as you go cell phone, land line, ditch my bank.

Trying to keep up with all this crap is silly.

And Facebook. How long till FB sells this info to telemarketers? No doubt this is buried deep within their Terms of Service you agreed to.
