I don't believe it can go multiple "hops." If you connect it goes to your friends, but it does not go to friends of your friends.

If your friends connect to the network using Wi-Fi Sense, it might spread to their friends. I'm not sure.

it better not go more than one hop, 99% of FB users are only ~5 hops apart.
