operations contact @ facebook?

[lists at mtin.net (Justin Wilson - MTIN)]

We have had issues with a FB application basically doing a DOS against a
network. This was not on our servers but somewhere out there on the
Internet.  It was an application that was going rogue.  It was talking to
several of our user?s using this application.  FaceBook caught it and made
the developer fix the App.  I am sure we were not the only ones seeing the
issue.

Clearly I do not have all the information, so please forgive me for
being confused.  But since when do I[*] have to ask you before I put
an application on my server?  If FB put an application on your server,
that seems like something you should have known up front.
