I'm not seeing an issue here though -- that profile information was readily available in html (if you have a facebook cookie) and is now even more accessible via json.

In fact, the json api gives out less information than the html frontend (e.g. all 18 pages you currently follow).

Like he said, the discrepancy is when you are not logged in. I can see his info and his private profile pic although I don't even have a facebook account and the html version gives me a 404.

It's not a big deal, anyone could make a throwaway FB account and see the same data. The difference is almost immeasurable.

You don't think its a big deal that I can crawl FB to capture the names and pictures of people, regardless of their privacy settings?
