Proposed version 3.6.2-1ubuntu1 works for me. The already entered Facebook account still said it could not authenticate, re-authenticating worked. Would be nice, though, if this would start using HTTPS again once Facebook fixes the issue on their side, and perhaps just fail gracefully (i.e. do not open the browser, allow the user to continue acknowledging risk) until then.

Open Online Accounts 2. Click "Add account…" 3. Select "Facebook" 4. Observe that a facebook login form loads in the control center panel instead of an external browser, with a security warning. [Regression Potential] None: the current situation is completely broken as long as facebook does this http redirect during auth. This fix just allows that http request.
