It seems Facebook should be forced to disable any kind of data sharing with 3rd parties since they obviously cannot make it work. They have enough issues with the security of internal data handling procedurs already that they have to fix, before giving data to third parties.
That is a massive part of their model, so that will never happen. The alternative of course is to stop giving them data.
It sounds like a lot, but it's not. You could probably scrape that much data from public Facebook pages in a few days without even being logged in, especially a few years ago. Heck, you could say right now that Reddit has billions of user records exposed if you define them that way. The Hacker News first page itself links to thousands of user records :)
