Do people’s phone contacts generally align with who they want to be associated with in any apps? Why would I (an average social media user) want my boss, my driving instructor, other professional contacts, my ex wife, personal trainer, therapist, doctor, etc. to be automatically linked to and recommended my social media accounts? I find the whole concept strange.
- Larrikin 6y agoYou don't have to add every single person that is a contact, you'd just be able to see they are connectable. Maybe I would like to connect on FitBit with my personal trainer but not on Instagram or Pokemon Go. Anyone I consider a friend that I didn't meet online I will always have their phone number, even if that isn't my primary form of communication with them. A phone call will always go through without regards to any data limits and is less spotty in areas with bad service. I'd love it to be a standard so that social networks could also be connected together in a similar asymmetrical way but that would require even more cooperation from people proven to be bad actors.
