By him demonstrating something which Facebook clearly stated "...is not a bug" at the time, Facebook can't claim he violated the ToS. If it was not a bug, he was taking advantage of a feature which Facebook gave him the liberation to by stating so. The moment Facebook claims it is a bug, that contradicts what Facebook told him in the email, and thus it is Facebook's fault, not his. Facebook REALLY should not have said "this is not a bug." Facebook then had few options: to leave this as a feature (which is ludicrous), or treat it as a bug and redact what was stated in the email, which means Facebook should pay the damn man. You can't lie in an email and then pull a 180 when it's convenient for you.
