Interesting concept, but it's very poorly implemented. I'd like to remove a majority of the apps listed, but I cannot easily "Trust" the few that I'd like to keep. It requires my email address in order to proceed. For a service that is supposed to prevent others from getting your personal information I find it ironic that you need to give them your personal information to proceed.<p>Removing one at a time is also a very painful process that requires 4 clicks. Two of which are dismissing windows requesting that I spam my users and give them my personal information. What a shame.

63 Facebook Apps, 90% of which I didn't even know I added.

It just showed me the list that is easily accessible from Facebook, which I already had well maintained.<p>Guess that's reassuring though.

I only have an account on one of those eleven sites (that is, Google).<p>Nothing particularly suspicious there.

mypermissions.com looks too much like a malware download page. As a suggestion, please avoid overly-suggestive calls to action.
