🤔Farcebook Ban.

I have been banned from using Farcebook for life. WOW, I hear you say. What did you do to deserve that? Farcebook allows the selling of pirated software, cloning of accounts, and the sharing of offensive images and videos. It also continually allows users to bypass its algorithms for safety checks on all sorts of personal information.

Farcebook used to be a useful tool for people who are disabled, those who cannot get out, and for those with limited or no friends or family. For those people, like myself, I am disabled and limited to places I can get to without help, it can still be a lifeline.

For others, it has become a runaway monster that leaves destruction and chaos in its wake. It is now run almost entirely by AI algorithms to generate advertising, sell your information, and generate revenue for its already extremely wealthy owners and stakeholders. The once useful tool has now become nothing more than a computer-generated cash machine.

Why was I banned from Farcebook?

I must have done something terrible to get banned, my friends, family, and followers assume. Many of my friends and family who use Farcebook have, at some point, been warned about allegedly breaking Farcebooks rules or policies and been given short bans, but I managed to get a lifetime ban. 

In February 2025, I was very ill and in extreme pain. I was taken to the hospital by a neighbour and kept in the hospital for nearly three weeks. The care I received in the hospital was great. My treatment by Farcebook was diabolical. I posted on Farcebook a photo of myself in my hospital bed, I was fully clothed. I let people know where I was so they wouldn't worry about me. It was the only way I had to communicate with many of my friends and family around the world; it let everyone know that I was in the hospital, but okay. I tagged the hospital so that everyone would know exactly where I was, allowing them to send chocolates or visit.

Along with all the messages I received, I had one from a friend who had seen me before going into the hospital and knew how ill I was and how much pain I was in. My friend asked if I was okay and if I was still in a lot of pain. I replied that I was feeling a bit better and that I was being given good drugs, felt no pain, and was being taken care of by the hospital staff.

I thought no more about it until an hour later, I had an email from Farcebook telling me I had been given a six-month ban from using Farcebook for breaking its Gun & Drug policies. The day was April 1st, and I assumed it was an April Fools' Prank from someone, but when I tried to use Farcebook, I had been locked out of my account.

I then received a further email from Farcebook explaining that I could appeal the ban by following a link in the email and filing an appeal. The message also informed me that if I didn't successfully appeal, my account would be deleted after six months. I tried this, but to make an appeal, I had to log in to my account, which it would not let me do because of the ban. I scoured Farcebook for a way to contact them, and the only information I could find was to appeal the ban using the link provided; in other words, there was no way to appeal the ban.

Rolling on to October 1st, the six-month anniversary of the ban, I received a further email informing me that, because I hadn't appealed the ban, my account had now been permanently deleted and that I could not apply for a new account.

Not once did Farcebook respond to any emails. To this day, I can't believe that the pictures I posted of me in a hospital bed were any reason I could have broken any Drug or Gun Policy, and if, by telling people I was getting drugs for pain while in the hospital, broke that policy, I should have been told exactly why, not left guessing. I should have been given a proper right of appeal, not one that required me to use an account that had already been blocked.

Since my ban, I have read an interview my Mark Zuckerberg, who admitted that the computer algorithms now run Farcebook and that it is run as a money-making machine. He also said that it was now out of his hands to control. He also said that he wouldn't let his children use it anymore. I suggest he take control, eliminate the algorithms, and have humans work on it instead.

I have now begun to use several other social media platforms, none of which bombard me with constant advertising, friend requests from people I have no prior knowledge of, try to sell me anything and best of all, the posts that I do see, don´t seem to use the same negative bias towards news. Goodbye Farcebook, hello BlueSky.
