20 minutes later, a notification of a 3-day ban arrived as well as two other messages which referred to nudity on his timeline, similarly to the first incident.ĭays later, X. There could not have been any mistakes involved this time. The test was basically this: he sent the very same link via Messenger to the same friend. X knew nothing like that had happened but the whole thing seemed so terrifying, Facebook monitoring everyone's private conversations, that he decided to test himself first. Since the whole case seemed to be stuck, a few days later, X ran his own test which could rule out the possibility of him being practically unconscious and accidentally posting the video with the arse on his wall, perhaps resulting in the ban. X had a theory that this is probably an error in programming.Īfter I had heard his story, I contacted the European regional representatives of Facebook who promised a prompt investigation, then I didn't hear from them for days. X already had an idea - I did not - that Facebook is not just capable of viewing people's private messages but actually evaluates them based on the content and censors what it doesn't approve of and even goes onto to punish users. X was confused since his timeline is automatically set to private and he did not post anything controversial, the only possible explanation was the link which he had sent via chat. The message was clearly phrased as if X had publicly shared a prohibited human body part in a public Facebook-post. He checked the given link through which he learnt that he had violated Facebook policy regarding nudity. He couldn't post, like or browse and was even banned from sending private messages on Messenger. Next day, when X woke up and checked his Facebook, he found a message notifying him that his account had been blocked.
