Could Apple, in a software update, put Facebooks apps in a sandbox, or wrapper, or VM type thing? Not sure of the technical term, whereby the device would only return encrypted or dummy device data? So that regardless of what permissions FB app has been given, each time it goes to get that data the VM interrupts and asks the user.
Say, FB wants to get your location, even though FB has location permissions a pop up says "Facebook is attempting to find your location. Do you consent to sending your location to Facbook?" "Facebook is attempting to read the Names, Telephone Numbers and Addresses of everybody in your contact list. Do you consent to this?" every time facebook app makes the request?
I'd be a bad user experience, but Apple could say it cares about privacy and blame facebook.
