Facebook Secretly Allows You To Be Looked Up

Facebook takes your privacy very serious...haha...just kidding.

Facebook is using the phone numbers they collect via two-factor authentication to serve ads, and now it turns out you can't opt out of the service once you've opted in. Additionally, Facebook is using the phone numbers as a "unique identifier," allowing everyone with an account to look up any user by their phone number.
