JimLur, Facebook news ban could backfire as media publishers draw communities and advertisers away

Apart from some social media users criticising Facebook for acting in a way that's "anti-democratic", on Thursday a raft of users turned to Twitter with "delete Facebook" and #BoycottZuckerberg hashtags.

Others reportedly removed the Facebook app from their phones in response to Facebook blocking health and safety pages including the Department of Fire and Emergency Services WA and the Bureau of Meteorology.

Facebook later reinstated these health and safety pages, but they were among other organisations including retailer Harvey Norman and the Australian Council of Trade Unions that saw their Facebook pages blocked for some time.

Your article is a hilarious big business fearmongering defense of Zuckerberg's arrogant and irresponsible behavior.

I know you are well deservedly gone. Also know you will read at least the headline of this post.
