"On Monday, the company will clarify its community standards to give
its users more guidance about what types of posts are not allowed on
the service. Facebook walks a delicate line when it tries to ban
violent or offensive content without suppressing the free sharing of
information that it says it wants to encourage. Its audience is vast,
with a huge variance in age, cultural values and laws across the
globe. Yet despite its published guidelines, the reasoning behind
Facebook's decisions to block or allow content are often opaque and
inconsistent."
