See thread! Using security to further weaken privacy is a lousy move—especially since phone numbers can be hijacked to weaken security. Putting people at risk. What say you @facebook? https://twitter.com/jeremyburge/status/1101402001907372032 …

Based on assurances by Facebook that 2FA numbers were 2FA only, we told people—AT REAL RISK—to use 2FA even when it was just via phone number. It sucked, but getting hacked is more dangerous. Hard for dissidents to avoid Facebook. Now sold out to improve ad-targeting a tiny bit.

Phone number is such a private, important security link. But Facebook will even let you be targeted for ads through phone numbers INCLUDING THOSE PROVIDED *ONLY* FOR SECOND FACTOR AUTHENTICATION. Messing with 2FA is the anti-vaccination misinformation of security. Unconscionable.pic.twitter.com/zIQqc6QPoN

I have never trusted them and never provided my phone number. Anything that began as a platform to compare appearances in college would not be my choice to use as a private platform. Inherently unsafe.

Smart. They hounded me for days. Here is a thing... when somebody keeps asking i get more suspicious. Didn't give it to them.

This has to be targeted through legislation. Time to bring the lawsuits.

It's past time to shutter Facebook. It's a subversive organization that constantly commits fraud on its users and it's a threat to national security.

Presumably this is also part of the larger integration with WhatsApp? So people who have shared a number through WhatsApp will be findable through FB someday?

This is f----ing infuriating. At some point I started getting TEXT notifications, because they added that option and automatically opted me in. This is normal for their new anti-privacy options. This is super aggressive and completely unethical. I have never seen this elsewhere.
