Excuse me but aren’t they only making the listing public (ie available to search engines) if you have your profile set to public - ie anyone can log on to facebook and search for you? And you have a month to ask them not to. If you have your settings to private (people can’t access you from a facebook search) they won’t publish your details(*) to google et al.
They aren’t crossing any privacy lines here, just making it one click easier to find people - you can search from google rather than from facebook.
Have I missed something or is lovely old
