"No one NEEDS to have one. " So what? That doesn't change a single thing. All you are doing with this line of thinking is blaming the victim. The fault here is Facebook's and the attacker's. No one else's.

Nobody is saying that they shouldn't be able to, rather that they should be informed as to what they're doing so they can actually make that decision. Without knowing what is happening, they cannot make an informed decision.

But that's the problem that we've got now. Being able to have such a blanket clause encourages putting in all kinds of crap to see what sticks.
