yep, I tested and found it doesn't work for all pages.

It does a request to m.facebook.com/$Q/posts

sometimes it's there, sometimes not.

It's just a demo and only to gauge interest in a full blown API / SaaS of some sort.

Are you generally interested in scraping data from FB using a API?

ya Facebook is known for serving legal notices to anybody with facebook in the domain name.
