So already stated that the person could have given his own contact list to facebook, but also the opposite. The surgeon could have given his contact list to facebook and figures if person X has me in their contact list, I must know them.
Lesson: give facebook a throwaway email and phone number if you can, if you really do not want this to happen. Also only browse facebook in incognito mode.
- TheSpiceIsLife 10y agoA throwaway email and phone number plus incognito mode, I don't think those things will help. The social graph has too many data points.
- compsciphd 10y agoI've done it. I have a throwaway facebook account that doesn't seem to connect to any of my normal points of contact (say for free offers where you have to share something on fb). Not that facebook couldn't figure out who I am (say via IP), but they just don't actively do that or at least expose that to end users.
