Social Media Crackdown
Me | 08/20/2016 | Bubba Gump Shrimp

Posted on 08/20/2016 2:10:31 AM PDT by Bubba Gump Shrimp

Be aware, my Twitter account was banned on Tuesday for violating the terms of agreement by posting "inflammatory rhetoric", which really was nothing more than re-tweeting stuff from HillaryStools

Tonight, I got a notice from Facebook, that I had to submit a government ID to prove my identity with address on the ID.

I use a psuedo-name on Facebook. I am only in a few groups, and no one can view my home or stuff like that except family.

I use a Tor-Guard provider, my ISP is blocked, and I will NOT give FaceBook a picture of my ID.

My first thought was "well, it's obvious they want my ID because I post anti-Clinton stuff"

My second thought was "isn't asking for ID disenfranchising minorities?"

In any event I won't do it, and I suggest none of you provide them with a true ID either if you are uncomfortable with the notion like I am.

Don't do it if you feel uncomfortable.

Yahoo Messenger came to a complete stop yesterday.

Dead and buried in 24 hours.

Stay off politics on Facebook
It is a social mining tool of the ruthlessly intolerant liberal left
Sounds like they are actively expanding the governments data base of opponents with photo id
Someday you may need to board a plane, get a passport, buy a gun, or be prescribed a pain pill and be told “ sorry comrade”

Twitter is banning right leaning users, and seems to be stepping on the accelerator in their purge. Social Media is Social Engineering users. Pity.

I wouldn’t be too surprised if the FaceBook notice you received was actually a scam of some sort...

There are a ton of these types of FB scams going around... just google it...

Good points. I’m going to open a face book account using the pictures of the most SWJ out of control libs that I know. I’d love if they get purged by the very people they support.

What the heck. You don’t even need proper ID to be president.

Nope, I’m wrong...

https://m.facebook.com/help/community/question/?id=10151825927267099

“Facebook requires everyone using Facebook to use their real name and birthday. This way, you always know who you’re connecting with. When we discover accounts that look fake or like they’re using fake information, we ask the owner to confirm that they are who they say they are.

In most cases, the easiest way to confirm your identity is to follow the on-screen steps to enter your mobile phone number and request a code.

If can’t verify your account using your mobile number, you’ll need to provide a copy of your photo ID. This could be a scanned copy or a close-up photo you’ve taken. We’ll permanently delete this document after we resolve your issue.”

You’re using Tor (fake IP address) and a fake name...

Looks like they nailed ya...

Porn on Twitter is condoned... on FB, not. Very strange.

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram......forget them all. They are controlled by fascists.

That fact isn't even debatable any longer.

“Social Media is Social Engineering users.”

Corporate America is “Social Engineering” employees. What is especially unsettling about it is that you’re not supposed to notice. HR has become a secret society.

It’s the facism of ‘like’ ... corporatism distilling personal garbage ... the only thing anyone should extend FB is the middle finger ...

It seems that the NSA has taken over identification control, doesn’t it.

Is it fashionable for conservative to hate corporations yet?

“Twitter is banning right leaning users,”

If so I am in trouble. I have 30,000 followers.
