Facebook: New "social" features secretly install malware
Facebook's privacy Chernobyl, part umptybillion. Snip from Macworld: "If you
visit certain sites while logged in to Facebook, an app for those sites will be quietly added to your Facebook profile
. You don't have to have a Facebook window open, you don't need to be signed in to these sites for the apps to appear, there's no notification, and there doesn't appear to be an option to opt-out anywhere in Facebook's byzantine privacy settings."
