Related: Please Facebook, let me peek over your walled garden. Taking a privacy-friendly stance, with the current Facebook, hurts my social life.<p>I do not trust your company, and I think you are bound to act unethically in the future. But I do not ask you to become a trustworthy ethical company. Mess with the accounts of my friends all you want. I just want to be invited to the next BBQ. People have stopped using e-mail for announcing these social events, and _all_ use Facebook. Could it be possible for me to not be on Facebook, yet still stay up-to-date on what my friends, or hell, even my parents now, are doing? A more advanced social graph API that hooks into email, RSS, Twitter, whatever... ?<p>I&#x27;m sure you also have my email-address from the address books of my contacts, so you could verify me.<p>As one of your longest non-users (I remember when TheFacebook required a Harvard-email for invite), please let me become a semi-user. It won&#x27;t pay you a dime, but it will make the world a better place.
