Why does a discovery site need access to my contacts when I try to "sign up with Google Reader"? The idea sounds great but that's a deal breaker.

- aria 14y agoWe need read access to auto-complete emails for sharing and for invitations. Unfortunately, there didn't seem to be a separate read from write permission for that. Hope that helps.
- spindritf 14y agoThanks, that's entirely reasonable. Though I would still feel uneasy to release a lot of personal information of other people (phone numbers, physical addresses, birthdays, etc.) just for autocomplete and signed up with Twitter.
- wslh 14y agoAre you using an in-house made Google Reader API access or an open source lib like https://github.com/brutuscat/googlereader https://github.com/brutuscat/googlereader ?
