Every person I've known to have their FB account deleted also happened to be people who posted inflammatory, toxic content on a daily basis. most of them also acted that way in PMs with people, but on an even more terrible level. Harassment level conversations, and probably a much larger scope than I was directly aware of.
I am not at all convinced that Facebook just deletes accounts for no reason. Sure, high-profile people get maliciously flagged sometimes, but I seriously doubt these randoms who get deleted are telling the entire story.
- rexpop 9y agoFacebook is such a mega-center of cultural life, that for it to have a black-box method of permanently banning people is dangerous, however you may feel about the "attitudes" of the people who're ostracized. Maybe I am inflating their role.
- seattle_spring 9y agoIt's not a black box method. Their Community Standards[1] are pretty cut and dry, and every person I've known to have been banned was flagrantly disregarding those standards for months prior to their accounts being deactivated.
