Depends on what sort of permissions FB asks for on install.
My suspicion is that they'll want everything they can get their hands on (location at a minimum). Eventually, they're going to want to replace your phonebook, etc.
The sad thing is, people will just let them.

- drivingmenuts 14y agoDo I trust Google with that information? I used to and now it's probably too late. Do I trust FB with that information? Oh, hells no.
- jcomis 14y agoThat's a really interesting point. I wonder where the permissions are covered in the preinstalled case. Some fine print somewhere I'm sure.
- r00fus 14y agoThey definitely want to replace your phone book. Perhaps even your address book (take me to where Jon R's office - even Siri would balk b/c you likely would not have his office address in your addy book). If the accuracy was high, these would be killer features for many people.
