FB’s response to imagine the worst and outright ban is awfully convenient. Do you really think FB is so on top of their user’s privacy otherwise?

Security and privacy are all about imagining the worst. Anything that can be exploited will be exploited eventually.
No, but that doesn't mean they have to allow random research group to crawl their data.

Again a mistake happened in the past. FB learns to not trust random research group upfront.
