Does this mean Yahoo gets access to all your friends' email addresses?

Or is that a moot point since they are likely drinking from the Facebook data firehose already?

My money's on "moot point".

Did this ever work? I can't see how it wouldn't be using the public Facebook API, which doesn't normally include contact's email (not even your own email).

[tlack]

exactly what i was wondering. the permissions combination makes no sense. perhaps this was implemented by FB without the API?

[revorad]

Honestly, who cares?

Plugged already?

Congratulations! 0 new contacts imported

It is working intermittently. Apparently this works with hotmail as well because Facebook has a tie up with Microsoft.
