I'm just waiting for the backroom deal between the two that will allow two way sharing between only them.

But Google lets you export your data. So if Facebook exports to Google, then your data can go anywhere, and we've won!

It appears that Google only allows you to export your data as long as the metrics show that no significant number of people actually do so.

I would also like to see any evidence you have for this claim.

Microsoft is an investor in Facebook. So its not likely that a backroom deal between Google and Facebook will happen.

Fair enough. That's a lot clearer than your original comment!
