    +I opened Facebook today to see an interesting notification.
    +
    +{{< figure alt="A Facebook notification saying our page was taken down for not following community guidelines." src="notification.png" >}}
    +
    +Apparently we are misrepresenting ourselves as the official Facebook page for
    +ourselves. I appealed the decision and they upheld their decision which can be
    +seen below.
    +
    +{{< figure alt="A Facebook message stating that our page was removed for going against community standards for misrepresentation." src="mirepresentation.png" >}}
    +
    +I've been unable to find a method for how we can prove who we are but maybe
    +this post will do it? I reached out via the Meta Business Manager but I'm not
    +holding my breath there.
    +
    +We only have about 1,700 followers on our Facebook page, and I do end up
    +supporting users there every few months. If the page is gone for good, it's one
    +less thing I need to check and post to which is good for me, but it sucks for
    +the users that were using it.
    +
    +Either way, time will tell what's going to happen here, but if you have any
    +suggestions, please reach out on our
    +[Discourse post](https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/facebook-page-has-been-taken-down/113)
    +for this issue.
