I suspect that Facebook does ban folks but that the people who do it attempt to get around the bans. If this could be solved by banning the people who do this, I imagine Facebook would have done that already and pocketed the 5 Billion dollars.
- packetslave 5y agoRemember that guy who live-streamed his killing spree on Facebook a few years back? It got taken down. Hundreds of reposts of the video were automatically blocked before anyone saw them. The small percentage of reposts that DID make it to live? People modifying the video (flipping, cropping, re-encoding, etc) explicitly to get around the machine moderation. Those eventually got taken down by content moderators. There are a lot of shitty people out there doing shitty things to get attention.
