Don’t Share Your Contact List

If you have any social media app installed on your phone, chances are the app has asked you to share your contact list with it. 

Doing this might help you find all your friends and family in one fell swoop, but it also means you’ll be sharing a bit too much information with the platform you’re using.

Remember that many social media platforms can share your data with third-party companies to make a profit. Plus, if someone gets a hold of your account, they could access information on your contacts, putting other people at risk. 

Last but not least, you might not want to send a friend request to all the people in your contact list. After all, you probably don’t want your boss to look at your profile by accident.
