I'd like to see a developer that does not know that facebook tracks you after everything that's been in the news. Even my almost 80 year old mother knows that.

Facebook has been getting a lot of negative press, mostly about enabling hate groups. I haven't seen a ton of press talking about how including sign in with Facebook leaks tons of information back to Facebook. Lots of negative FB press, none that I can really think of that focuses on how their APIs drive their information dragnet. I have to wonder also how much of this gets lost in translation. If you are an Indian developer team, do you realize the implication of including the Facebook API?
