And how should I do that if I don't have a Facebook account? How do I tell Facebook to not steal my phone number and texts from phones of my friends?

- barrkel 9y agoSo, to reiterate, how to stop Facebook from stealing your phone number from your friend's phones? Phone numbers aren't content - FB is still stealing it.
- wilsonnb 9y agoIt's not stealing if your friend consents to it. If you don't want your phone number shared with Facebook, don't share it with people who are going to share it with Facebook.
- wilsonnb 9y agoYou can't tell Facebook not to do that because your phone number and texts are no longer just yours at that point. Your friend has a copy and can do whatever they want with them, including share them with Facebook, the NSA/FBI/police, their friends, or anyone else they want to. If you don't want them shared with Facebook, don't give the people who are sharing them with Facebook a copy.
