Hi Ant,
Well for a site that it typically very user-orientated, that page is completely incomprehensible to me. However, I don’t think it’s a sinister as the original note you shared may have let on. The Facebook platform is the API they expose to make mashups possible but. It just looks to me like the default permissions they’re granting there are too broad (or look too broad – I wonder how they compare to what you can see about people not in your friends network on the site itself).
Have you looked at things like http://www.boredonthebook.com.
Of course it is also possible that they’re evil world dominators. Probably in bed with Google… or Ask!

Ask, ye say – I knew they were up to summut…
But I think you’re right as usual, Tom. That’s not to say Facebook users shouldn’t pay close attention to their privacy options…
