There was no need for that user to ask first, so long as that user was on his or her friends list. Whether or not your addition to a group by someone on your friends list was well intended, it can be annoying to deal with. In 2019, Facebook removed the ability to automatically add members to a group without first being invited.

<h2> What Happens When You Are Added to a New Group </h2> All groups require member approval by either an admin or another group member, depending on the group&#39;s settings. In the case of public and closed groups, anyone can see the list of members of the group, its name, and topic. In secret groups, only current members of the group can see the member list.

What Happens When You Are Added to a New Group

All groups require member approval by either an admin or another group member, depending on the group's settings. In the case of public and closed groups, anyone can see the list of members of the group, its name, and topic. In secret groups, only current members of the group can see the member list.

After you leave a group, you can't be added by anyone else unless you ask to be re-added to the group. If you decide to remain in the group, you&#39;ll see group posts in your news feed unless you select the Unfollow Group option.
