What does that prove though? Those very same engineers are accessory to all the crap that we do know Facebook has pulled in the past and likely is still pulling in the present. That code doesn't have to be secret at all.

There are quite a few ex-Facebook people who have come out with scathing criticisms of the company, and plenty of Google's internal political fights have spilled out into the media.

I'm fairly certain that if this has been happening for years, somebody would have leaked confirmation or publicly admitted to it by now.
