Facebook review

As an application, Facebook rarely if ever crashes, or doesn’t,t perform as expected. The ease of use isn’t solid and it has many useful features and uses. Communication and the ability to stay connected with friends and family is straight forward and easy to learn, even for older users. Simple feeds and posts are it’s hallmark. X on the other hand limits it’s posts with a short amount of space. Threads have improved Facebook to allow it to be competitive with Tik Tok, but it could use some improvements as far as screening racist content and how it goes about self-regulating itself. Too much misinformation is allowed to be posted and the reporting system needs improvement. Also, I have seen a huge uptick in scammers and fake accounts. Facebook has a reputation for allowing fraudulent advertisers and unscrupulous web stores. The level of trust users have ordering products from Facebook approved and sponsored companies is it’s Achilles heal. Too many scam companies and scammer accounts on Facebook leads to consumer skepticism and lack of trust buying products on-line. Artificial Intelligence will only get better in the near future and I don’t feel confident in Mark Zuckerberg’s ability to adapt and keep Facebook safe from bots, scammers, and nefarious AI entities. Let’s hope I am wrong.

Facebook and Instagram account disabled for no reason why!?!

FB disabled, Petra Ludwig account and we don’t understand why. On August 3 it was suspended due to suspicion of deception and fraud. It was appealed and came back on then again on September 3. It was suspended again for the same reason appealed and came back on then again exactly one month later on October 3 it was suspended again for the same reason only this time after appealing it it was determined that the account did not follow community guidelines regarding fraud and deception and we got a message saying that Facebook technology found the account to not follow community guidelines and deception and disabled the account and my Instagram account ( Payte_123 ) as well. I have never used this platform to be deceptive or for fraudulent reasons and I believe that there was a mistake in disabling this account. Is there any way I can get it back, please?! It says that you use the same technology for every account for everyone all over the world and that cannot be true because there’s no reason my accounts should’ve been disabled. I have had them since 2007 and it has caused me so much distress and anxiety since this has happened. Is there any way that anyone can help? Something is very very wrong with the situation. Please consider it serious. and take it into consideration. I will greatly greatly appreciate it thank you!!

Sales Rep

Facebook didn’t give me an appeal and assumed I posted child porn after having an account for many years. My account was hacked while I was at work. Later, I noticed my account was restricted and FB alerted me that I posted child porn so they restricted my account. That same day, FB sent me an email to tell me to tell me that someone from a different device accessed my account from Folsom, CA. I did everything according to FB instructions to prove my identity and changed my password. Still, Facebook hid my account for over 7 months until they ultimately decided to suspend my account. I was hacked in July 2023 and Facebook restricted my account immediately by hiding my account so that all my friends thought I blocked them. All my photos and personal videos are all gone! All my friends thought I blocked and deleted them! I messaged FB so many times to explain that I was hacked. No response! I even got an email from Facebook to let me know Ithat I’m running out of time to appeal. What appeal? Whenever I logged on my hidden account, FB asked if I agreed with Community Standards. That is not an appeal, it’s a No-Win situation. It was a Agree and Disagree question. I agree. They never gave me room to explain that I was hacked. They allowed me to create another account but I want my old account. Poor Tech Support never responded to any of my messages and request.
