> For a contact in an email adress book, that makes sense. But for a "friend" relationship in Facebook, which side owns that edge? I don't see where there's any ambiguity on this issue. Each individual has the right to not be subjected to spying and monitoring, which includes collecting personal and private information. A social graph is not a data dump where you are a mere drop in the ocean. A social graph is an ocean of personal and private data collected from you. Therefore, it's quite obvious that individuals have the right to not have all this ocean of personal and private data collected on them, specially without their explicit and informed consent, and they should have the right to force anyone to delete this info, both all or subsets, automatically and reliable and verifiably. Just because I don't mind hearing what my aunt has to say about what she baked or who she chatted with, that does not grant you the right to get my credit score or where I went to highschool with or who I met years ago or where I lived, just because third parties and other edge nodes in a social graph posted that information and data that enabled you to piece it together. What is there to be discussed?
