Facebook Oversight Board Rules to Uphold Trump Ban

"Facebook’s independent Oversight Board ruled to uphold the company’s January decision to suspend the Facebook and Instagram accounts of former President Donald Trump.

But, the board said, the indefinite timeframe of the suspension “was not appropriate.”

The decision will ensure Trump remains blocked from posting or having a presence on the social media company’s services for now."
