San Francisco author and activist Rebecca Solnit reported her account on Meta’s social media network was suspended in a post to Bluesky on Tuesday, June 10, adding that she was soon told the decision was permanent.
But less than 24 hours later, the account was reinstated after a Meta spokesperson said the suspension had been made in error.
On Tuesday, Solnit wrote, “Facebook decided to suspend my account because of a piece I wrote Monday about violence which in no way advocates for it (but does point out who is violent in the current ruckus).”
WHY IS ANYONE ON FACEBOOK.
Instagram is in the same category and are the same company, lets not forget. Yet so many people can say out of one side of their mouth “leave facebook!” but then say no not instagram too!
So noted.
AND INSTAGRAM!
And WhatsApp. Also same company.
AND WHATSAPP!
It makes sense for a public figure trying to reach people. It won’t work because of the algorithm ™, but I can understand still wanting to try.
Yeah I think that’s a valid if highly flawed reason.
You could just buy advertising on it for that though.
