you don't.. obviously.

not the same thing though is it?

one is like someone giving someone else your address and phone number after a conversation with you.. you'd just avoid talking to them again if possible

the other is like your telephone company recording everything you say playing it to someone else to see if they're interested in anything on the tape and then giving them your address and phone number

one's bad manners.. the other's illegal
