I’m actually shocked I haven’t heard of more people finding holes in facebook to exploit. Note that Digg has had a lot of problems with people finding holes and abusing them to get front-paged or gain 100s of friends. But Facebook has a lot more private info that is sensitive.

Yeah, I’m totally surprised by the level at which someone can get at your info. It’s not “easy”, but any developer could store you’re data if you install their app. I’d really like to see an option where I could choose who gets to see my data.

I’m in agreement with you here. I’m not a big facebook user but I do have an account and what I buy is no’one’s business. I haven’t dabbled in facebook apps, but if what you are saying is true, you could create an app to allow someone to enter’s someone’s username and then see all of their info when they think it is only viewable by their friends.
