Full APIs are unnecessary, and any CEO asking for one demonstrates a lack of knowledge about the game sufficient to call his or her competence into question. Should a corp ask it of you, take that in consideration and ask yourself if you really want to be part of a group if their leadership is so...questionable.

- They can see your skills. They cannot change your training.
- They can see your assets and wallet, and they can see who you have given money to in the past. They cannot take any of those assets or send them on to anyone else.
- They can read your mails. They cannot read mails you have deleted, and they cannot send mails in your name.
- They can see your contacts. They cannot change any of your personal contacts or add any personal contacts (although, if you join, you will inherit corp/alliance contacts)
If you are giving your API to anyone, you have to ask yourself:.. I'll ask myself whatever the F I want. I'm certainly not going to consult YOU to find out what I should ask my SELF. I find this attitude to be overbearing and useless...which are the two traits most in common with CEOs that demand full APIs. I don't want anyone to read my wallet. Why? It has nothing to do with PRIVACY. It has to do with, the information is useless. CEOs that think they're getting spy information from seeing member's wallets are IDIOTS. I don't want an IDIOT for a CEO, so I don't want my CEO looking at my wallet. I know that makes sense, but does it make sense to YOU?
(I seriously doubt it.)
I do not want my CEO reading my contacts; none of my contacts. They are MY contacts. That's why they're called "MY CONTACTS." This informations is of no use to a CEO and can be hilariously manipulated by a SPY to create any impression a SPY wishes to create. If a CEO doesn't know this, then he/she is too dumb to be a CEO and I don't WANT a DUMB CEO so I don't want my CEO looking at MY CONTACTS! Is that too SUBTLE FOR YOU?
If anyone is asking for your API to be in their corp, you have to ask yourself, "Do I want to associate myself with people that are this STUPID?"
