You've given more away to Facebook. If Facebook hasn't asked for photo ID it's because its system is confidant it knows who you really are. Other people will be asked for photo ID when signing up for a Facebook account.
Yup. I know that. And even if I'd done nothing but create an account with my phone number, Facebook will know I'm in the contacts for all they people they gave it access.
But so what? As long as I keep my webrowser clean, they can't track me anywhere else.
Sadly, the main competitor to facebook marketplace I found on the app store also requires a photo ID.
Probably that leaves Craigs List.
