Facebook has announced that the feature will be suspended while it makes “changes to help ensure you only share this information when you intend to do so”.
Facebook’s move led to warnings around the Web that warned of how rogue app developers could sell such data on to marketers. While the company’s terms of service for developers forbid this, it was indeed a real risk.
Facebook says that the ability to share your address and phone number with third-party apps will return once changes have been made, which should be in the next few weeks.
