I think the nicest part of this is that account recovery e-mails are encrypted. I wish we'd see more of this.

While I'm cautious about facebook in general, it is (in essence) a repository for public data. A public key falls into that category, so they gain nothing more than the association of user and key. And in return, the PRISM databank has more superbly useless information to store and eventually 'collect' for 1EF communication.

And I gain immunity from account hijacking unless I mess up Key Management.
