I agree with you, but I see multiple different questions involved here: 1) Is it Free Software? 2) Do I control my data? 3) Is it ok to execute client-side code (in order to see information)? So what you describe would satisfy 1 and 3, but Facebook would still process my data in a way I may disagree with. This is a privacy-related question, though, not a Free Software question. > It would still be a proprietary service. I am not quite sure I would call it that, though. It might even be a free service then that locks in my data. Happy hacking!
