Google said on Facebook: you do not give me your data, I do not give you mine!(Google 对 Facebook 说:你不给我你的数据,我也不给你我的!)

It seems Google really can Facebook bad mood? Poach their actions far more than the author of a Facebook for Android, they recently modified the Google Contacts API secretly terms of use, the most obvious change is: If you use my API to read user's contacts, then you Open your Contacts API was me!
In short, when you register a new Facebook, the social networking service, they will let you enter the Google user name and password, so you can all of a sudden Limian in Facebook Gmail contacts to find out you add is better friends. However, if the use of agreements under the new API, Facebook do that again to die, because they lie, never return - Facebook has never allowed the user to export the information to their friends, even if they released some time ago a high-profile data download functionality only allows you to download your photos on the spread Facebook, video, etc., the so-called export your contacts name only give you a list of friends, no contact, called What sort contacts? In fact, Facebook's intentions are very clear that they will not let you into the relationship between Facebook, other social network: Either you play in Facebook, or to start over somewhere else. Can be said that Facebook and Google advocating such practices "data liberation" is completely contrary.
Of course Facebook is not such a dry one for Google, twitter earlier this year has introduced new feature allows users to find their friends on Facebook twitter account, but it was not long before this function was to shut off Facebook, and labeled high-sounding reason: twitter too many calls to their API, until now this service has not resumed.
Facebook, the company also eat fruit losses, Qiao Bangzhu September of this year's conference, we demonstrate the spirited to import friends from Facebook to Ping the inside, but we really spend so found could not find this feature: Obviously, Mark was made after the students see this conference a very difficult decision, shielding from Ping's API request.
So it seems a little Google action for everyone at this outlet, fight to the bitter meaning.Do not know the end result is that Facebook Google concession or compromise? Or tried to mediate, said Microsoft will release a patch. ?

看来 Google 真的看 Facebook 不爽了?他们的行动远不止挖走了 Facebook for Android 的作者,他们最近还偷偷修改了 Google Contacts API 的使用条款,其中最明显的变化就是:如果你使用我的 API 读取用户的联系人,那么你也得开放你的联系人 API 给我看!
简单来说,当你注册一个新的 Facebook 之类的社会化网络服务时,他们都会让你输入 Google 用户名和密码,这样你就可以一下子在 Facebook 里面把你的 Gmail 联系人找出来加为好友。但是如果按照新的 API 使用协议,Facebook 再这么做就不行了,因为他们耍赖,有去无回 —— Facebook 从来不允许用户导出他们的好友信息,即使他们前段时间高调发布的数据下载功能也仅仅是允许你下载你传到 Facebook 上的照片,视频等等,所谓联系人导出只给你一个好友名字列表,没有任何联系方式,这叫哪门子联系人?其实 Facebook 的用心非常清楚,他们不让你把 Facebook 的关系带到其他的社交网络:要么你在 Facebook 玩,要么就到别处重头再来。可以说 Facebook 的这种做法和  Google 倡导的“数据解放”完全是背道而驰的。
当然 Facebook 这么干不是针对 Google 一家,twitter 在今年早些时候曾经推出新功能允许用户找到自己 Facebook 上好友的 twitter 帐号,但是没过多久这个功能就被 Facebook 给屏蔽掉了,并冠以冠冕堂皇的理由:twitter 太多次调用了他们的 API,直至今日这个服务还没有恢复。
水果公司也吃过 Facebook 的亏,乔帮主在今年9月的发布会上兴致勃勃的给大家演示着从 Facebook 导入好友到 Ping 里面,但是等大家真正用上后发现根本找不到这个功能:很显然,Mark 同学看到这个发布会后作出了一个非常艰难的决定,屏蔽来自 Ping 的 API 请求
这么看来 Google 的这个行动有点为大家出气,拼个你死我活的意思。不知道最终结果是 Facebook 妥协还是 Google 让步?还是说微软会发布一个劝架补丁。。。?
