Shadow Ban

The thought police running Facebook awarded them a shadow ban. Nobody really understands what that means other than things once public and visible to all are now hidden. A simple and blunt punishment for crossing a line; real, imagined or otherwise. So we're not sure where we stand. If there were/are rules then they are dynamic and changeable almost on a whim. Easy to cross or break or ignore and when you do you're banned and placed in the shadows where you can't easily be found. Don't bother trying to appeal this either, you're trapped and sentenced by an algorithm that couldn't really care less. Like a motorway pile up, everyone slows down for a look but then just drives on by and the incident is quickly forgotten. There's always a replacement to fill the space. In the end we'll all be quickly forgotten.
