Hm - no. If I accept a friend request I allow that user to read my profile but I do not authorize any 3rd parties to access it. If you show me any mention of 3rd party access in a friend request - I might change my view.

> What if a friend gives me their password or remote desktop access to their computer and I look at your profile?

You don't seem to make any distinction between a first/second party (me and my friend) and a 3rd party (CA accessing data through an API). In fact there is a difference that's very clearly defined in contract law, user agreements, etc.
