Why would Facebook permit this, once they figured it out, since their business model is predicated upon building a 
social graph and then mining it?

And of course, all the layer-7 worm/exploit traffic would be encrypted, too, which blinds detection/classification 
within the communications bus (in this case, Facebook).  Overencryption is a serious security issue, and is only 
growing worse, IMHO.
