How to delete your email and phone number from Facebook

It's common knowledge that Facebook knows everything about you, even the data you choose to withhold. Take, for example, your contact number or email address. Many of us opted out of giving this away when we signed up for Facebook, Facebook Messenger, or Instagram because we didn't want to be searchable using these pieces of data.

But, alas, many of us have realized that even if we don't provide data to Meta directly, someone else will. When someone signs up to any of Meta's services, they are asked if they want to share their entire address book to make it much easier to find connections. This is how Facebook got hold of details even if the user had never had a Facebook account.

It AMAZES me how many scammers there are in the field of WEB DEVELOPMENT, WEB DESIGN AND SEO. I have been in this industry for over 15 years, and I am currently reviewing employment applications. At least 80% of what is stated by candidates is BS, and i know this by looking at their work. They can easily BS customers, but not someone in the industry.

Do yourself a favor if you are a business owner in the market for a website or digital marketing presence. Get a personal referral, or failing that, have the candidate thoroughly vetted.

Much of the time the buyer will not notice technical issues as many are transparent to the customer. This is why the scammers get away with grandiose professions of their abilities.

The end result is you get a site that loads slower than it should, and does not index well in the search engines. You may not notice this because you have no point of comparison. Your business page just does not perform as well as it should, and sometimes the difference between technical optimal and bad is massive.
