Facebook Login update does away with mandatory sharing
Facebook's all about sharing -- pictures, life changes, embarrassing details that may get you canned by some future employer. But what about information from third-party apps that you don't want clogging up your feed? Facebook's been rolling out an update that'll make it necessary for apps using the service to ask your permission before going ahead and posting, say, your workout routine to everyone you know -- a feature that, granted, a number of apps already have in place.
