I think Facebook is not after FB Purity. They are after anyone who could come up with a plugin that scrapes the content and stores it to a db. People using the plugin would get access to the db in exchange: companies could look up prospective employees, ex-girlfriends spy on their defriended ex-boyfriends, etc.
Hell, the idea is so tempting that someone is definitely doing this already. And you'd only need a percentile of the users to get the information for every other facebook user.
Surely this can be said of any application that you give such permissions to with OAauth? We've already seen cases of people selling the information they gathered.
