“Give me your phone number.”

→ Creepy coming from a stranger in a bar. 🍺🌚
→ Creepy coming from an app on your phone. 📱🌚

@threemaapp was wondering if a group invite might be the better option

@threemaapp Well, pretty direct and maybe unwelcome more than creepy. But you'll know what the intention is (in most cases).

Coming from a known person or an app by a known company/institution/developer: might still be unwelcome - especially as you'll be sure about the intention.

But now imagine a stranger in a bar asking for the whole content of you phonebook. _That_ is creepy!

But if an app asks for access to your phonebook: Most people aren't even getting uncomfortable. That is SCARY!
