In the newest Steam Beta, you can already automatically post wallspam when you upload a screenshot.

It will tell all your prospective employers that you just played TF2 for 15 consecutive hours.

Without toilet breaks.

Use your Steam/gaming information to make a profit by selling that information to third parties for targeted advertising, is what I assume is the main thing they'll do.

Using Facebook integration with Steam as an incentive to perks on Steam is a bull♥♥♥♥ move on Valves part. My respect for Valve (and with it the Steam platform) has just drastically gone down hill.

Giving users that choose to link their accounts to FB a higher friend count is a perk.

Where as those of us that choose not to use a shady companies services, yet have been long time loyal customers and supporters get nothing.
