Some posts shared by users on Facebook may result in the page being blocked or restricted, but by following these guidelines you can keep your page safe.
A brief summary of the Community standards
Facebook’s Community Standards aim to provide users with an environment where they can freely express their opinions without harming others.
These guidelines explain what posts you can share and what posts you should be cautious about.
1. You are not allowed to share content that contains hate speech, violence, suicide and pornography.
2. False reports and deception are not permitted.
3. Your site may also be restricted or closed for violating the privacy of others.
4. In addition, posts that violate the law may not be shared.
Facebook’s Community Standards include rules regarding posts about suicide and self-harm.
Content moderation: Facebook removes content that promotes suicide or self-harm, including potentially harmful images and videos.
Provide help: When someone shares a post about suicide or self-harm, Facebook tries to offer that person help, including information about hotlines and support groups.
Facebook wants to ensure that users do not view such content and do not harm themselves by viewing it.
These Facebook rules ensure that it is a safe platform.
Previously, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg had explained in a blog post about community standards that users who violate community standards would first be warned and if the violation continued, the user would be banned. His profile would be closed and he would be banned for life.
