So I install sykpe,chuck in who I am and where I am from.
I use the same email and password as facebook!
I then go to add a contact in skype and enter a first name, lo and behold it finds one of my FB friends, first result. Uncanny.
I type in another first name only of a fb friend and bam, first result.
I type in another friends name and they don't pop up however another one of my friends mothers pops up as first result, not my friend.
I type in another friends name, no result for them but the cousin of another friend who is who lives in new zealand pops up, i recognize this cause they are quite active on my friends page!
I just put in Rob, as in krygorian from bf2 lives 500km away, and it came up with him as my first result

I, for one, am not all that keen on all this integration. You just need one of these companies to give the powers that be their database information, and they'll have a pretty extensive profile on you, without even trying.

What makes you think that isn't currently the case? You're not living up to your motto.
