Facebook censors image calling out social media censorship: A user posted a meme that showed a photo of a book burning from Nazi Germany, with text saying "Book burnings don't just look like this, they also look like this," and an image of text saying "Your post has been deleted. We removed your post because it doesn't follow our Community Guidelines on regulated goods. If you violate our guidelines again, your account may be restricted or disabled." Facebook placed a sensitive content filter over the graphic. Such filters require users to click through the sensitive content interstitial in order to view the filtered content. Not only do such filters give the impression of inappropriate content, similar filters have been shown to reduce user interaction with content.
