    Photon will indeed be applied to all image URLs. Only URLs including specific parameters will be excluded from Photon.

    In your case, Photon returns a broken image because Facebook blocks direct access to the image:

    curl -svv 'https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-1/p50x50/531073_287582807985582_653744962_n.jpg'
    *   Trying 31.13.93.7...
    * Connected to scontent.xx.fbcdn.net (31.13.93.7) port 443 (#0)

    <
    * Connection #0 to host scontent.xx.fbcdn.net left intact

    To solve this issue, you could use the jetpack_photon_skip_image to exclude specific images from Photon, like for example image URLs using a specific Facebook domain:

    That should help!
