Those articles are dated or refer to an event from several days ago, so if it really was a SNAFU by FB I'm sure it would be fixed by now.
It's probably more a case of FB displaying things that the user could see anyway (IF they went hunting for it), but now it just gets displayed more prominently. Like your news feed showing when your friend comments on something, and what they said... a year ago you would have only seen this if you viewed their wall... and you would have had to click on the link to read the content.
It's not a privacy breach but every little change like this does increase the creepy factor.
