Hi Anthony and Jelena,

If the viewer is a friend of the profile owner, the viewer object
should be available even if the viewer doesn't have the app, right?

I think the security constraint shows up when we have a viewer which
is foreign to the app or the profile owner.

Does this sound correct to you (I have been pulling some of my hair
over stuff like that a few weeks ago)?
