Is there an appropriate way to call for Facebook to be more transparent about their data security and rentention policies? My concern here is not that Facebook wouldn't use SSL to collect an ID, but why they can demand the ID in the first place. Do they treat the ID (sensitive data) differently

Obviously Facebook senior management wants to run it cheap, put their users at risk and put their staff into a position where they have to enforce for them discriminatory and possible illegal procedures and policies. How about investing like real companies do into an actual HelpDesk instead

Hello Hassan. The PGP encryption feature is used only for outbound email from Facebook. For example, password reset emails sent to you may be encrypted. I think in this case, submitting documentation over TLS is preferable to attaching it in a PGP-encrypted email both for security and usability.
