Privacy backlash over 'Girls Around Me' mobile app

My guess is that Foursquare banned this application from receiving data from the API due to its aggregating data with Facebook which is a violation of Foursquare's TOS. I could be wrong but I have seen other applications do similiar things functionally and they haven't' received such a privacy backlash. Any other thoughts?
