Facebook gegen Ex-Muslime

Seiten von Atheisten aus der muslimischen Welt oder von Ex-Muslimen haben es nicht leicht bei Facebook. In den meisten Ländern, aus denen sie kommen, wird Apostasie drakonisch bestraft, in einigen sogar mit dem Tod. Wie es aussieht, werden solche Seiten systamtisch von Islamisten angegriffen und denunziert. Mit Erfolg.

Facebook restricted and then shut down the public pages of Ex-Muslims of North America (24k followers) and Atheist Republic (1,6 million followers) –groups that advocate secularism and provide support to “apostates” (people who leave Islam and who often face persecution).

In fact, the ex-Muslim group claims that for the last several years, Facebook has been continuously blocking groups like it. The ex-Muslims have written an open letter to the social media giant, calling on it to “to stop exercising intellectual persecution” against atheist and ex-Muslim organizations and to “whitelist” such vulnerable groups from organized false flagging attacks.

On Monday, Muhammad Syed, the president of the Ex-Muslims of North America took to Twitter to report that the Facebook pages of Ex-Muslims and Atheist Republic were restricted (and the next morning shut down) “in violation of Facebook’s community standards”. No details were given as to what standards were violated. On Tuesday, after appealing the case, both groups were able to regain full access to their pages.

Derweil wurden in Pakistan "während einer Kampagne gegen gotteslästerliche Inhalte in sozialen Medien seit April 12.968 Webseiten gesperrt."

Man befindet sich in guter Gesellschaft.
