Out of curiosity - did facebook have a similar policy and then go about changing it? They also note they post changes on their website, but it does not need to be on the front page, or other high traffic area.

I have seen this service before and really like it, however I just can't trust them with my bank info.

Here's a great infographic (http://mattmckeon.com/facebook-privacy/) highlighting Facebook's changes to their default policies regarding the stuff the general public can view on your profile.

The trick they are pulling is to default "yes" for you when they update the policies. You are then forced to go through the labyrinth of settings to change everything back. Clever, no?
