All of us have contacted Facebook regarding issues relating to our own accounts. We are referred to community standards and whether something meets the bar for community standards, which, 100% of the time, it does not. As a result, whatever goes on Facebook stays on it. Ms Haugen has been on the inside. Are those in Facebook laughing up their sleeves at us in terms of the company's view of its community standards?
