Can someone clear this up (preferably if you've worked with the FB API):
when NYT published that spotify and netflix have accessed to private messages, isn't that simply for them to do a POST call for sharing a tv show or song?

Given Facebook's history it's hard to believe that the lack of granularity, and resulting incentivizing of users to grant as much access to personal data as possible, was an accidental oversight.
The full messaging access seemed to be a hidden bonus for their larger partners.
It’s more dangerous because Spotify is a website and so could store your messages in theory.
