This story looks like the exception, though?
The app piggybacking and the initial "View As" stories constituted Facebook handing out data sloppily. But location records, search history, and TFA-only phone numbers are internally held data Facebook wasn't showing to anyone. This moves things from "faulty visibility settings" and "shady data sales", which we've seen before, to "outright security breach".
