I'm glad I'm not signed up to FaceBook. Not that I would have anticipated them using their customers as lab rats, but I can't say I'm actually surprised.
I feel like the APA and some of the other medical organizations should tighten their ethics rules so these kinds of "experiments" can't happen again without those who participate them losing their licenses or suffering other kinds of professional consequences. After all, that's what happens with unethical physical-world experiments, correct?
