Why on earth is @benedwardstv no longer lead commentator on #F1TV?

Final word. And somewhere in some remote AWS storage bucket, my FB name and account identifier are gathering digital dust in a "This guy was banned" sub-bucket. *That* annoys the f*** out of me.

6/6 As I've discovered over the last 24 hours, there's nothing you can do when this happens. You can't speak to a real person, you can't follow any of FB's own advice as it all ends at the same "You can't use Facebook or Messenger. This decision cannot be reversed" message.

5/6 But now it must be having a hell of a time. "We've caught the f***er! Look at the *** this guy posted today!"

4/6 I'd love to plot that algorithm's response to my FB activity over the years. The graph would start out flat ("What's he up to today? Jeez, another guitar video.") with an occasional bump in it ("Whoa. What's this?") when I make some sort of weak political comment.

3/6 Has to be a joke, right? I've been on Facebook for 15 years, have never posted anything nastier than a tree that looks like a rabbit and have suddenly been banished by an algorithm? An algorithm that has "the account was clearly hacked" staring it in the face.

2/6 When I tried to log in and do just that, I was greeted with a message saying, "You can't use Facebook or Messenger because your account, or activity on it, did not follow our Community Standards. We have already reviewed this decision and it can't be reversed".

1/6 Yesterday afternoon, my #Facebook account was hacked by a virus/hacker calling itself Larry Ford (yep, not my name). Facebook thoughtfully sent me an email suggesting that action needed to be taken ("Dear Larry," it began). @MetaNewsroom @facebook #hacked #facebookDisabled

Does no one proofread anything at @BBCNews any more? "Parts of Spain have experienced a severe draught, and the hot summer has meant the nearby Mediterranean sea is warmer than usual for this time of year, making violent tropical storms are more likely."
Some crap decisions from Race Control today. No updates after first red flag. Race should have started 10 minutes earlier. Should have been red flagged immediately after MSC crash. No standing restart. #F1 #MonacoGP #F1RaceControl

Ooops, #Eurovision. Great Britain is not the United Kingdom.
