Social networking service Facebook censored bianet news “Facebook Censors Kaos GL for ‘nudity’”.
On July 29, bianet made news of Facebook censorship on Kaos GL, an LGBTI organization, which allegedly ‘violated the community rules’.
We shared the news on Facebook and then Facebook censored our news stating the original photograph of the news as we used as headline violated the community rules.
Facebook also noticed a warning message for bianet admins:
“Bağımsız İletişim Ağı-bianet has been unpublished for repeatedly posting things that don’t comply with the Facebook Terms. Please review the Facebook Community Standards to learn more about our policies.”
Kaos GL’s news was about a gay Brazilian couple who stripped off against homophobia. (EA/BD)
