Summary

In April 2018, Facebook updated its community standards and released its internal content control guidelines. Changes include allowing nudity for educational, medical, and protest purposes, allowing childbirth imagery, and implementing a new appeals process for content removal decisions. However, the article argues that Facebook's censorship system remains broken and inconsistent, and questions whether the new measures will effectively address the issue.
