There is one thing critically missing from a privacy perspective: fine grained permissions for Contacts. It is all or nothing. All or nothing means, Facebook gets all my Contacts data if I enable the permission in WhatsApp. Including birthdays, notes, profile photos, email addresses etc.
iOS should have:
- Contact groups
- Share only individual contacts
- Share only phone number and first name or initials or so
- Mark some contact information as "never share those"
- Make apps believe they have full access
Inbefore: don’t allow shady companies access to my Contacts. Yeah, reality is more nuanced than that. And this is not about me, but people storing all kinds of stuff about me in their Contacts and uploading it to Facebook.
