NAME: Danae Castañon
CENSORSHIP: Content ban

What reason was given for your ban?

FB banned a photograph I took and posted of a girl in a protest for women’s day cause she was shirtless, they removed my post and I couldn’t post anything for a couple of days.

Why do you think your post(s) was censored?

There’s always censorship with female nipples.

Were you able to appeal and what was the response?

Tried re-posting and got my post removed again. No respect for freedom at all.

What effect has your experience of censorship had on you?

It’s sad that many people post content with very explicit things. And those are not usually things that document a historical moment; that doesn’t get a chance to be out there, for no logical reason.

What’s one thing you want people to know about this topic?

Why is social media deciding with no real fundamental and moral support what can be posted if it’s not harming anyone?
