From the article: This leak is not good news for Facebook, as it raises the question of how secure a Facebook users private data really is. If the main source code for a site can be leaked, then it can be said that almost anything is possible.

Another large site foolishly written in PHP. Another jumble of PHP spaghetti code thats not secure.
Yes, this could be a killing blow to them
"It seems that the cause was apache and mod_php sending back un-interpreted source code as opposed to output, due to either a server misconfiguration or high load (this is a known issue). It is also apparent that other pages have been revealed, and that this problem has occured before, but only now has somebody actually posted the code online." That is one of the reasons I prefer to use python+django for my most important projects.
Knowing nothing about either, are you saying that it is impossible for a misconfigured server to send back un-interpreted source code for pythos+django?
