Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg testifies at a joint hearing of the Senate Judiciary and Commerce committees in Washington, D.C., April 10, 2018.
Facebook deleted the accounts of more than 78,000 users of its social media platforms Facebook and Instagram last week on the eve of President Joe Biden‘s inauguration, claiming that they had posted “QAnon” (Anonymous) posts related to the “militarized social movement” for more than six months. The company claims that these users have posted content related to the “militarized social movement” over the past six months.
In an update last Wednesday (Jan. 19), Facebook said, “We will continue to strengthen our enforcement efforts to identify more militarized social movements, new terms related to QAnon and how people are trying to bypass our detection, including by paying more attention to the profiles on Facebook used to organize and promote these movements and groups. “
“As of January 12, 2021, we have identified over 890 militarized social movements to date, removing a total of approximately 3,400 pages, 19,500 groups, 120 events, 25,300 Facebook profiles, and 7,500 Instagram accounts.”
“We also removed approximately 3,300 pages, 10,500 groups, 510 events, 18,300 Facebook profiles and 27,300 Instagram accounts because they violated our policy on QAnon.”
A Facebook spokesperson told Fox Business News last week that a total of about 78,000 Facebook and Instagram accounts were deleted from August 2020 to Jan. 12, 2021.
Other big tech companies such as Twitter (Twitter) and Google‘s oil tube (YouTube) have also deleted tens of thousands of accounts related to the campaign in recent weeks.
On the same day it announced the permanent suspension of then-President Trump‘s account, Twitter also upgraded its censorship of QAnon related content.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, conservatives as well as civil rights groups Electronic Frontier Foundation and the American Civil Liberties Union all condemned Twitter’s removal of Trump’s account.
According to Wikipedia, Anonymous Q believes there is a deep government within the U.S. government that opposes President Trump and his supporters, a theory that first emerged in October 2017 from an anonymous user in the 4chan discussion board who signed himself as Q.
In addition, Anonymous Q has accused numerous liberal Hollywood actors, politicians and high-ranking officials of being involved in an international underground child molestation network.
