Re: Implications...
I don't think FB's business model depends on people trusting their deepest secrets to their phones. They're in the advertising business, not espionage.
They're upset because if their tool isn't secure, people might look for others instead, and once your users start looking for alternatives to your products there's no telling what they might find.
Never attribute to conspiracy that which can be easily explained by common-or-garden greed.
