Australia: greater censorship

A conference in June on the rise of anti-Christian sentiment, saw Facebook censor the advertising of it on the social media site.

The conference on ‘Religious Freedom at the Crossroads – The Rise of Anti-Christian Sentiment in the West’, is to be held at Sheridan College in Perth, Western Australia, from 14-15 June.

However when a law professor tried to announce the conference on his Facebook page, it was rejected. He received an error message and the posting was blocked. He was told the posting ‘goes against [Facebook’s] Community Standards, so no one can see it’.
