I have always been a little queasy about Facebook keeping a lot of info about us. Imagine combining this with UID. So easy to track undesirable groups of people (and oh yes, do we know who these are in india!) using this mechanism! Much more sophisticated than Hitler's shoeboxes where scraps of paper were kept to track Jews, Roma et al.
