If they use your picture to advertise to your friends, showing you in a nike shoe or whatever, that's still okay? It still wouldn't have left the Meta ecosystem.

They might create an AI-generated person who closely resembles your friend but not exactly. If they do it undetected, it could have a massive impact. Imagine an ad featuring someone who looks just like your crush. I really hope this gets banned before anyone tries it.

This scenario reminds me of Amazon Prime’s Live TV with hyper-targeted advertising. A friend who has it noticed that his ads revealed what he and his wife had browsed on Amazon. It was fun at times to see that we’d all been looking at the same items, but it also felt a bit too personal. Now he never turn on his TV whenever guests visit.

No, because that would be sharing your photo and not unique to you as a user. I also don't really see why anyone would want to do that...
