Ok, I have built some things with the api.

what is lets you do is when I log in on someones site (using the api) they can list off all of my information like age and messages and crap. I can also see a list of my friends and their info (anything I can see in their profile).

in short, anything I can see on facebook, I can see using the api.

if you don't want to be visible with the api (ie hide yourself from http://yourhottestfriend.com) you can go into your privacy settings and change it there.

for the most part it is safe tho, and they are not able to steal your password because you actually sign in on the facebook site and get sent to the api site
