Most likely TCP session kill based on the server response (certificate). It could also be a combination of multiple indicators. IP addresses, SNI, TTL, but here it seems more likely to be the first one. This could be proven: put a self-signed cert of www.facebook.com on a server and try to repeat the IP address based check.
