I'd be concerned too about apps sending my logins to their own third-party servers without any warning. Obviously as we don't which app you've had this with we don't know whether they do warn or not.
Dec 13, 2010 at 15:22 comment added Joe Casadonte @GAThrawn - that's an interesting point; I hadn't looked at it that way. OK, so maybe nothing malicious is happening, but it's still dangerous. Not sure what to do, now.

If anything a lot of users are going to see this as a benefit as it means you can connected to Jabber, MSN, GTalk, AOLIM, etc all with only one network connection using up your battery and data limits.
