Yes, we can blame Facebook for not allowing export of emails. Several people on here have said that Facebook has learned their name (and some other information) without them having an account.

If Facebook does X using other companies' data, Facebook should allow other companies to do X using their data.

Saying they should is the easy response, and will surely receive many upvotes, but my point was it's hard to judge them. I suspect many people here would hesitate to open up like that if in a similar position. Facebook is a business after all.
