Meta receives more than a million appeals over removed posts
Meta's independent system of appeals against its decisions to remove content on Facebook and Instagram had about 1.1 million cases in its first year.
Others featured an image of a dead child alongside text about whether retaliation was justified against China for its treatment of Uighur Muslims, andThe board overturned Meta's decision to remove the first two examples, but supported its decision to ban Mr Trump - although it criticised the "indefinite" time frame.
Board director Thomas Hughes said it looked for "emblematic" cases with "problematic elements" to take on. Anybody - including Meta itself - can appeal to it if they disagree with a decision to remove content. Of the 1.1 million cases received during the 14-month period, only 47 came from the firm.However, Facebook alone has more than two billion users around the world, making this a relatively tiny percentage of its vast content. It was also noticeable that relatively few complainants were from outside Western countries.
