From Thursday, Australians mentioned how they went to their reliable Facebook news accounts, only to find out more shocking news. And that’s when they received a text message stating that no more posts were available. Moreover, even news from overseas was hidden.

“It should never have happened in the first place. But unfortunately, it did. And there are no good answers.” He also talked about how actions have consequences but in Facebook’s world, no one ever loses their jobs or is held accountable for their actions.
