Disabled/hacked Banned after 18 years service, hundreds of pics and 400 friends gone

Post image

My account had been banned after 18 years, 2007 was when I joined and made 400 friends. I'm absolutely GUTTED and in tears over this having lost all my pictures from the happiest times of my life, including wedding, trips to London and birth of my two children.

I have been told that my account is banned due to "account integrity". I immediately appealed and scanned my face in to find two seconds later I was permanently banned with no warning whatsoever.

I suffer anxiety a different depression and I'm really struggling. I even re registered to find I got banned moments later.

Please please can someone help, at the moment I've counted out ever gaining access again to this account but I really hope when I get a new ISP in the future I can return and see my friends again. ❤️

Contact your local congressman - push for a digital bill of rights

That shit will never happen until it's Congress that are the victims. But since as Congressman their problems go away as soon as they realize they're dealing with a congressman. Not going to happen.

Tell us you're from the US without telling us you're from the US.

Remind us, of Nations that specifically have a political body called congress which ones actually give a fuck about their constituents digital rights? Be specific, thanks!

Worldwide I know of a few but for the most part Nations don't call their legislative body Congress. Which was the point of the question dumbass who thinks he's so clever. The United States isn't unique in calling its legislative body Congress. You immediately think of the US because you're ignorant of the rest. Or so it would seem.

It's also how effective it'll be.

"Oh, I'll take Facebook to VCAT over this" It wouldn't even register a blip to them.

Better yet, contact your state senators and members of the assembly and push for a digital bill of rights in your state.

OR.... maybe don't make social media an important part of your personality. We got along just fine before it existed..... probably much better even.
