The article notes that this doesn't mean it's sanctioned by these companies or even known to be happening, but the IP addresses of requests coming to one of the users' machines match to lists of IP blocks for each company."

I wonder what they want with Facebook info? I hope it isn't to harass people.
I'm sure they have a more palatable word for it. Perhaps "save", "convert", "assist", etc.

No, they are completely different - one is a bunch of rich religious zealots trying to force their opinions on everyone else, the other was founded by L. Ron Hubbard.
