“An argument could be made that since Obama has used it as a platform (government policy) then it could potentially be up for potential legal action if it limited the free exercise of an opposite political view point but i’m not sure how that would turn out.”
Yeah, that, plus FB’s work as a government contractor (and who knows what specific ties, email exchanges etc. with Obama officials) could arguably make this more of a public sphere issue depending upon the depth of involvement than purely a corporate property rights one. I’ll grant that I got a little ahead of myself with my initial statement, and it could be a stretch perhaps- but that’s essentially what I’m driving at.
Worth a try perhaps if there’s enough co-ordinated involvement here- who knows?
Ultimately, people should just ditch FB if it keeps playing games, I guess.
