Facebook has a huge team in the Philippines doing manual gore removal. There was an article on how the people doing that work can't do it very long as it's mentally taxing. Since this was a picture of a dead person, I bet this was just removed by that team.

- nrmitchi 11y agoI'm sorry, but did you read the article? It clearly states that it was, in fact, not a picture of a dead person.
- bla2 11y agoI have; how would I write this comment from the heading "I've been scrubbed"? But the cleanup team didn't read the post. The photo is shown at the bottom, together with the byline it looks like there might be a dead person behind that tarp.
