Facebook Taking Major Policy Actions on App Developers Today

Facebook has made a big sweep on developers violating Platform policies today, suspending a few popular applications as well as many smaller ones. Many of the applications that have gone missing were quiz applications, and Facebook has confirmed to us that it has suspended MyCalendar, Collect Smiles, and Best Friends, among others.

In the past, Facebook has suspended applications large and small for violating Platform policies, including user privacy. While Facebook didn’t say specifically why any of the applications were suspended today, they’re all most likely due to either violations of Facebook’s privacy rules or creating misleading user experiences.
