Wow! So people actually give Facebook access to their entire lives, so to speak.
There's an entire generation of young adults out there who have never experienced privacy of the sort we older'uns are accustomed to claiming as our birthright.
It might be argued that those folks actually have a more realistic understanding of the fact that one can't really hide in this day and age than we do.
Unless your consumer transactions are all consummated with cash, your name and what you buy are recorded in a database somewhere. Unless you're paid under the table, your place of employment and your income are noted by the IRS. Those who drive have license, registration and insurance information out there. Those who visit a doctor have medical records out there. Campaign contributions can be looked up. Real estate transactions and whether property taxes are paid on time are a matter of public record.
Against this backdrop, allowing Facebook to import one's address book so people in it can be suggested as prospective Facebook friends doesn't seem an alarmingly unwise choice.
