This question ("...but ever?") is a good one. How many people balk at sharing their contact list with LinkedIn, and yet install apps from LinkedIn and also WhatsApp, Facebook or PayPal on their phones, all of which access the contact list anyway?
I'd never install such apps. I once had the Facebook one, long, long ago, but nuked it when the update wanted mic/camera access (and now it wants to read people's SMS on top of that...).
