facebook email security

facebook-email-security

I just wanted to say thanks to facebook for spending three seconds to protect my email from potential spam. Using the old "send an encrypted string to a serverside script that generates an image" trick, my contacts on facebook are able to see all of my info, but it's still not succeptable to scraping.

CODE:
  1. <img src="/string_image.php?ct=AAAAAQAQJvT9BrR78jYrS6YLTQhkzgAAABOm0eP9WnzgwUOWanSASFCfsuBdruoGjUA%3D&fp=8.7&state=0&highlight=" border=0/>

generates this

I wonder when / if there will be a vcard/hcard export for your friend's info ala linkedin?
