Exactly. I don't understand why people are being hard on Google but give Facebook a free pass for doing pretty much the same thing. Granted, you have to put in your email credentials (something which scares me, but most Facebook users won't think twice) which gives Facebook permission scan your address book for 'friends'. They even retain email addresses that aren't tied to accounts so that if they are ever registered Facebook can tie them back to your account.
