Another Follow Up of the Day: A Facebook rep released a statement yesterday concerning its controversial removal of an EastEnders screencap of two men kissing from a post about a gay kiss-in protest in London, saying the photo doesn’t violate any policies “and was removed in error.”
A likely story.


Meanwhile, over on Boing Boing, Dangerous Minds’ Richard Metzger talks about how he, a married, middle-aged man, became an accidental spokesperson for gay rights overnight.
[advocate.]

Thanks, Daily What! Queerbook also enjoys healthy suspicion. So let’s work together to keep large organizations like Facebook honest. Until we establish a pattern of discrimination (purposeful or not), Facebook can continue to claim that incidents like this are accidental.
