<p><strong><a href="http://zestyping.livejournal.com/256801.html">The new Facebook API exposes the events you attend to anyone on the Internet</a></strong></p> I’m generally impressed by the new set of Facebook APIs—they’re a whole lot easier to work with than the older stuff—but they’re also clearly a bit half-baked and the privacy model needs some urgent work. The Graph API allows to to see all “open” events that any user has attended or is attending, which can exposes things like their friend’s home addresses. Yes, this means you can stalk Mark Zuckerberg. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/facebook">facebook</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/graphapi">graphapi</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/ka-ping-yee">ka-ping-yee</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/privacy">privacy</a></p>
