My account has been placed on restriction simply for sharing posts found on my timeline. No, I don’t go out on the Internet and research each and everything I find on Facebook to accuracy because that’s what FB has their fact-checkers for. Who has time to research anything and everything we want to share? Although sometimes I do if I come across something that sounds obviously bogus. In my case one thing was a portrait done in shell casings. When I saw it on FB I shared it because it was an unusual art medium. It apparently said below that it was done in the Ukraine but FB claims it wasn’t. I got blamed for sharing an untrue post. If I were to post something from the Internet I would be responsible for it’s content. I only post from reliable sources CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, and newspapers such as Newsweek, Today, New York Post, etc. most people on FB are on a coffee break or have limited time to do the fact checking on everything they find on FB. Another thing I posted was about our army sending men to Germany. I shared it but immediately thought better of it, checked online for accuracy and then immediately took it off my FB. It was up perhaps 3 or 4 minutes and was removed. Since I did do the check and removed it immediately I really don’t think I should be in trouble for it. Another time I answered a question on a Fibromyalgia Discussion Group about a medication and said simply that ”it works well for me”–that was called ”inappropriate” and ”against FB standards.” It’s utterly ridiculous!
