Pandora contracted with Facebook and started showing what my friends were listening to (I had used the same emails in both).

That same day I quit Pandora. At that point in time, they did not even have a mechanism to kill your account, so I had to email the company personally.

I quit my Facebook account not long after.

I refuse to willingly partake in a surveillance society.

Are other people seeing this? I use the web interface all the time, and deliberately avoid services that force Facebook sharing/integration.

It certainly isn't forced, but it is probably enabled by default if there is a facebook account with the same email.
