Where do you draw the line at intrusive? A lot of the apps in my list fell into the category "used once, forgot it was installed." I don't think it's necessarily intrusive, but I removed a bunch of them none-the-less; I just don't want them to have permission _anymore_.

A great feature from Facebook would be time-limited access; i.e. Quora can access my Facebook info for 24 hours and then all permissions are revoked. Although, unless the app is using long-lived access tokens, they can only access your FB info for a few hours after an active session -- so if you haven't logged in recently, the app can't grab your data.

Well, they're defining "intrusive" to include things that Facebook supports on purpose, so they have different opinions about what should be permitted on the platform. For example, this scanner considers apps that have permission to post in your name as intrusive, while Facebook not only allows that, but even spent time implementing that functionality.

> Shouldn't the platform owner (e.g. Facebook) make sure that no intrusive apps can connect in the first place?

When "intrusive" conflicts with "making money", guess which one wins?

But seriously: Haven't found an app that was worth a damn to enable in the first place.
