   My request to you is not to amplify their trolls so that we can stick to   
   the topic of this thread, which, clearly, is all about contact management.   
      
   Once you answer the question above about your amplification of trolls,   
   then I would like to ask you to explore your point of view on contacts.   
      
   In one of your rare on-topic posts in this thread, you said (verbatim):   
    "That a number of apps have read access to the contact list is   
     of no consequence at all. My privacy and that of my contacts is safe."   
      
   Staying on topic and ignoring your previous unwarranted trolling as water   
   under the Usenet bridge, I openly state that I agree with your first   
   sentence if you also append "to me" at the end (meaning, you don't care   
   about others' privacy - which is fine - as that's your prerogative).   
      
   But you not being respectful of other people's privacy does not equate to   
   you claiming, sans any evidence, that your "contacts are safe".   
      
   Since we don't need to disagree with your first sentence, as you don't have   
   to give your friends and relatives any respect, the latter is an issue.   
      
   Q: Why do you think your "contacts are safe"?   
   A:   
      
   Do you even *know* what apps are uploading your contacts to the net?   
   --   
   Those who most deprecate privacy are often blissfully unaware that they,   
   themselves, are the ones who are being disrespectful of others' privacy.
