As of Jan 1,2011, NEW PRIVACY setting called "Instant Personalization" shares data with non-Facebook websites and is automatically set to "Enable."

Go to Account Privacy Settings
Applications and Websites
Instant Personalization
Edit Settings
and un-check "Enable"

I found three aps accessing my journal there and I never signed up for them!

BTW if your friends don't do this, they will be sharing information about you. COPY & REPOST!

Jesus Christ. Time to disable the good ol' facebook account, I think. I haven't even visited in months, and it seems every time I read about it, some new privacy-invading option is added. ARGH.

Yup, I have one but barely use it, and it doesn't have my real name or any of my info.
