Facebook doesn't have the greatest security track record. While it wouldn't be productive to argue that one group is inherently more trustworthy than the other it's worth pointing out (as others already have) that the code is available to the public.

Code being public doesn't mean its secure. See php, django, gnupgp, openssl etc etc etc.

Again, the issue isn't the collection, its the storage, processing and disposal that really matters here.
