I spent $50 boosting a meme about that big tech CEO's face and it got taken down in an hour

The platform said it was 'unverified personal info' but it was just a silly edit from a public photo. Makes you wonder who decides what counts as harmful speech online, you know?

Algorithms flag first, humans check later maybe.

Ever wonder who gets to write that rule book in the first place? Like, what's their actual goal?

Feel like @nguyen.piper has a point about the order of things, but it's not just algorithms. Real people make the final call, they just follow a really strict rule book. I saw a post get pulled for showing a public building because someone said it was a private home. Another time, a silly cartoon of a politician's pet got flagged. Who writes these rules, and why are they so scared of a joke?
