I wonder how many billions this app could drop off Facebook's IPO, if it either causes people to avoid sharing (unlikely) or brings in a heavy-handed regulatory response in an election year (much more likely).
FB should just buy the company to kill the product; would be cheap in comparison. 1% chance of 100mm loss would warrant it.
And about five minutes later, zillions of programmers would start writing similar apps, in hope of a big payday when Facebook shows up to buy them out.
