		<description>The blatant Facebook censorship is getting worse.  Today I was censored on my first attempt to make a valid reply to a news posting.  I am not the only victim and have other links at http://www.facebookcensorship.org  It looks like a lawsuit will be necessary.  On the bright side Facebook has a history of losing lawsuits.  This could be a great opportunity for the right law firm.  Please spread this website far and wide.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re surprised?!  Facebook can remove (aka censor) anything they like on facebook.com because they own that domain name.  That&#039;s right, it&#039;s their website, not yours, not mine, and not your friends&#039;.  It&#039;s not your profile, it&#039;s Facebook&#039;s profile about you.  There are no civil liberties or rule of law on Facebook, and nothing even resembling freedom of speech.  The &quot;Terms of Service&quot; isn&#039;t worth the web page it&#039;s written on.   

You wouldn&#039;t holiday in North Korea, so why waste your time on Facebook?</description>

		<description>Censorship is alive and well on FACEBOOK! 

Here is what I was sending:

Here is a cool radio interview with Cynthia on the RadioActive Lunch, give it a few seconds to load...

http://radioactivelunch.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=122&amp;Itemid=1
I spoke with 6 term Congresswoman and Green Party Presidential Nominee Cynthia McKinney about her transition to the Democratic Party, Green Party values, and Cynthia&#039;s commitment to the right to self determination, freedom, liberty, justice, accountability, and speaking truth to empower.

***************************************************************************
Sent to MEDIA:

I was posting information on CYNTHIA&#039;S FACEBOOK PAGES online and I was shut down for posting on MY OWN GROUP! With ONE MEMBER on it!

I had just posted to the WALLS of 4 Facebook groups re: the radio interview link that John Judge sent me late last night.

I cannot believe this. This is deliberate and this is censoring!
(I sent no emails to anyone from this account. ALL of my work was taking place from the Groups)

I am waiting for their offices to open and then I will be calling them, but this is the kind of info that needs to go out to everyone.

Their automated response to me:
Disabled - SPAM
Why was I disabled?
Facebook limits the number of times a user can send the same message or make the same post. Your account has been disabled for taking repeated actions that were construed as spam.
Why are there limits?
Facebook has limits in place to prevent abuse of our features and to protect users from potential spam.
What are the limits?
Unfortunately, Facebook cannot provide any specifics on the rate limits that we enforce. Please know, however, that the speed at which you are acting and the sheer number of actions you have made are both taken into account.

My emailed response to them:

I work for the Cynthia McKinney for President (Green Party Candidate) and I was sending info out on her GROUPS. I sent no emails to anyone from my account, but posted on GROUPS (walls and add a link sections) that have multiple members under the Cynthia McKinney topic. I sent no spam emails from my Facebook account. This is deliberate censoring in my opinion. I have notified the campaign and will be sending this out to blogs and other Cynthia McKinney supporters and MySpace and everywhere if this decision is not rescinded immediately. Of course, there is no way I can call you since you have no phone support. I will call your investors and Board of Directors instead. I do not think that this would occur to any Facebook member posting information on the site about McCain, Obama, or Ron Paul.

After speaking to Facebook on the phone at their Palo Alto offices, the young lady that answered would not give me her name, her boss&#039;s name or the names of the investors. She said Facebook does not answer inquiries via phone.

		<description>Facebook is also censoring certain application search terms that compete with their own services. &quot;polls&quot; and &quot;wall&quot;, for example, return no results in the app search on http://www.facebook.com/apps/index.php</description>
