It is inevitable that someone will try to exploit facebook and use it to their advantage... It's happened to many other sites before..

IIRC Bebo uses the same API as Facebook... so be careful there too all you bebo pimps =D

Facebooks fault tbh. They allow coders access to too much information, but.. then again, i suppose (as the video said) that many developers need some information for some applications.

I watched this yesterday. It will probably now entice hackers to create applications to exploit user identities. Only thing on my personal info is my name and the county i'm from.

Never show your full birth date and home address.
