2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body

What a billionaire wants them to stop doing something they send a legal team after them and make them pay money to defend themselves..
When us pleebs what them to stop doing something it actually cost them more money to have somebody make someone stop than it does to ignore us
My buddy says all it really takes is a shotgun, but the French used guillotines.
I have a cocktail recipe that might interest you
Wonder if data brokers get info on billionaires too. Let's normalize exposing everything billionaires do by buying their data, and presenting it to the world
Oh yes, they have lists of famous people whose data is removed, in fact the big data company I used to work for had a whole team dedicated to keeping these lists updated.
I have reported so much stuff on Facebook, including obvious harassment where someone did multiple posts just abusing people
It never gets removed.
But my post telling people where I could be found in the mountains when hiking was for cybersecurity or whatever (in case I disappeared I made this post).
Facebook has turned to complete shit, to the point after 30 years, i wish there was a better alternative
Luckily we have spaces such as the Fediverse where we can escape CorpoNet.
