It's also a great heuristic for controling your own privacy. Digital information on the internet spreads. So put it out there knowing it'll be out forever.

- aidenn0 6y agoI've seen privacy fatalism grow as an outlook recently. PII of yours in somebody else's contacts list is sufficient to have it "out forever" (see e.g. Facebook), and that is, if not completely out of my control, it's close to it. The thought is: Given that they will get my information from someone else, why should I not get the benefits offered for giving up my PII.
