I'm not a huge fan of Facebook but that is one impressive bug bounty and turn around time. Nice job to both parties.

In the spirit of https://xkcd.com/1053/, I'll assume you haven't heard about the privacy violations, misleading or hard to find control panels, and constant changes to visibility settings leading uninformed users to unwittingly post sensitive information with public visibility.

Facebook (the web app) has its uses and reasons to like it, but there are also lots of reasons not to like it.
