Very true, it wouldn't be sustainable if people wouldn't come back with their data. If you boil it down, I guess you get to the age old capitalism question: Should people be protected against their own 'stupidity'? If people are willing to give all their data out to Facebook without second-guessing their motives, that is their right. And Facebook is a company that wants to.. I'm not sure what their endgame is, but they sure as hell aren't a charity.
But as a (facebook) developer you've already lost your ethics if you're okay with using people's ignorance to fuel your product. I'ma use this in my next blogpost ;)
