Yah, it all seems pretty paranoid. Talk of Facebook being a "walled-garden" really doesn't compare to what we have to deal with on mobile platforms. I heard on the radio someone mention the days of "phone rental", where there were the exact same concerns you hear today about security and control. But then it was monolithic AT&T saying only the three models of phones it designed could possibly be safe to use. Ridiculous.
