    FF permission catastrophes waiting to happen (Twitter, but could be anything)
    Serious permission issue. Added FF through the FB app. Used it to consolidate Flickr, delicious, and Twitter. When adding Twitter, it asked if my Twitter updates are protected -- they are, very much so.

    I checked the "protected" box when adding the Twitter feed. My assumption was that this kept my Twitter feed protected, visible only to those I share Twitter with. I believe that to be a reasonable assumption; there's certainly nothing to suggest otherwise.

    I discovered today that FF took my protected Twitter updates and broadcast them across Facebook. That's the end of that. Going to "add/edit" the services also had an erroneous link, it took a while to find another way to do it.

    FF is clearly beta, but combining public and private feeds is a dangerous business, and needs to be approached with a lot more respect and care.
