Recently Facebook has had ads about their Facebook groups. There are several of those I belong to that deal with politics. But what groups does facebook show on their ad? Is it a group based around issues or political groups? No! We see members of the International Kazoo Players Association.
Facebook had to look long and hard to find a cutezy group that was innocuous enough that no one could be offended by them. There is nothing controversial about playing a kazoo.
In the meantime I posted a link to one of my political blogs and to my surprise I got a message that claims I violated their community standards. Someone claimed my blog was spam. I don’t know who lodged the complaint but the only thing I was allowed to do about this was to punch in a message that told them I disagree with their actions. They have taken all my comments were I posted a link to my blog. This is clearly a case of censorship. They have allowed on person to use a complaint to block me from posting notices of new posts on my political blog. Sense when can one person shut down my personal comments because they don’t like my politics? Facebook needs some type of system so that I can protest these kinds of decisions.
