Facebook is asking for user's email passwords and facebook says it will stop the practice.

Facebook is asking for user's email passwords, creating new accounts. This is far too much than being sketchy. 
Just as facebook admitting that it stored hundreds of millions of facebook users’ own passwords insecurely, facebook is demanding some users fork over the password for their outside email account as the price of being a part of the social network.

Facebook users are being interrupted by an interstitial demanding they provide the password for the email account they gave to Facebook when signing up. “To continue using Facebook, you’ll need to confirm your email,” the message demands. “Since you signed up with [email address], you can do that automatically …”

A form below the message asked for the users’ “email password.”

In a statement emailed to The Daily Beast after this story published, Facebook reiterated its claim it doesn’t store the email passwords. But the company also announced it will end the practice altogether.
“We understand the password verification option isn’t the best way to go about this, so we are going to stop offering it,” Facebook wrote.
