Is it even possible for this to be the result of negligence when Facebook has some of the best programming talent in the world? Maybe, but I don't think so. I think this was INTENTIONAL. The question at least is why? IDK. Some FB employees probably didn't mind because it gave them unbelievable spying powers. Another thing to consider is how the NSA had a strong relationship with FB for years and the odds of them not knowing about FB's clear text practices is zero. They knew. People within law enforcement probably knew as well. Given how nothing happens at FB without Zuck's apporoval there's no doubt he knew as well.
