The problem is that when you login to these websites with your Facebook, you’re giving them an amount of access to your personal info that you may not be comfortable with. Certain sites and apps may post on your behalf, or have access to your pertinent info or friends lists. It’s really weird when you think about it, and Mark Zuckerberg knows it and wants to give you more control over what you share.
At F8, Zuckerberg announced that users will have more direct control of their content, choosing what exactly they share and even enabling an anonymous login feature. Sure, some apps may not work well without some personal information, but it’s better than feeling like these third parties have access to all your stuff.

How much do you think you’re sharing with other websites?
