BSD is _more_ restrictive than what Facebook gives you here, since it doesn't give you any patent grant at all.

- tsuraan 10y agoThe BSD license states "Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met: ...". If facebook is distributing their project under that license, and the terms are followed, then any lawsuit that facebook files against you for redistribution or use of the binary or source forms should be covered by promissory estoppel. I can't see how patents would change that. IANAL, though.
