The irony here is so strong you can pick it up with a magnet. They whine about Amazon and online shopping

If their business model is failing, a grant can only postpone the inevitable.

(yes, I'm very cynical about cyberbegging)

I generally shun social network tie ins as well.

But I took the time to check this one.

Rather than setting a cookie that you voted, which can be circumvented to allow multiple votes per person simply by clearing the cookie or using a different browser, they are using the FB id to prevent "stuffing the box".

That's it, you are not liking anything or giving permission for any access.

About as benign as you can get.

After voting there is an optional Chase opinion poll which you can simply decline with no additional nag.
