The difference is expectation. I expect my phone calls to be private. That goes for the associated data.

I don't have the same expectation of FB. I don't know anyone who does.

This is a problem with running in mostly technical circles. I don't think your expectations are well aligned with "average citizen".

I know people, who were very surprised to hear, that FB can read all their personal messages as well.
