Facebook said Wednesday that https is now the default standard for everyone browsing its social network, meaning that almost all traffic to its Web site and a majority of traffic to its mobile site will be established through a secure connection.

The hope is to insulate people from man-in-the-middle and eavesdropping attacks, and prevent members' accounts from being comprised.

That's not really worth anything when Facebook gives the NSA easy access to the user's data.
