Meta complaint: Discriminatory Practices

Open 91 views Social Media

Filed 16 Aug 2023 by Tim

I buy and sell fossilized shark teeth. Fossilized shark teeth are 5-25 million years old so no sharks are harmed in collecting/buying them. When FB allows it, I’m able to build up my inventory of fossilized shark teeth through Marketplace and a handful of Buy Sell groups including those that buy/sell/trade fossilized shark teeth.

Then about four years ago FB began pulling my post stating that it goes against their rules for selling on FB as they don’t allow the selling of shark teeth. I sent them two packages of the teeth that I buy and sell so that they could see that fossilized shark teeth are not like the white modern teeth where people harvest sharks for their teeth, jaws and fins. I 100% support the non selling of modern shark teeth.

About 18 months ago I found a way around their rules by boosting my post. All of a sudden it was okay to buy shark teeth. Apparently money speaks more there rules.

Today I listed posts on FB in several groups in an attempt to buy some fossilized shark teeth and FB had been pulling my posts stating the usual against of rules and even are threatening to put me in FB jail.

Here’s my beef, if you go to FB marketplace and search shark teeth you will find that there are lots of people selling fossilized shark teeth. If you go to FB groups Buy/Sell/Trade Shark Teeth, there are dozens where people are buying, selling and trading shark teeth. This is a clear case of Meta using discriminatory practices against me. If I can’t buy/sell/trade fossilized shark teeth, then NO ONE ELSE should be allowed to buy/sell/trade fossilized shark teeth.
