Google Escalates Spat With Facebook

Sean Hollister:

Simply put, the feature of the Facebook for Android app to provide the social network’s stored contact information to your Nexus S has been revoked from here on out, and as soon as you get the update all that contact information will disappear from your phone.

So Facebook moves against all apps on its platform using Google ads, and Google… turns off a feature in the Facebook app on one model of Android phone, the relatively obscure Nexus S.
