Please join this group as a statement to facebook and promote it for others to join. I think facebook was always better than myspace, because it did not allow sexual advertisements. Facebook is figuring out a new policy. They have been allowing lots of ads with females dressed in very little and in suggestive ways. However, facebook has told us that many of these ads should not be on there and they want our help to let them know which ads are offensive. Let's help facebook keep their site clean! Let's not promote the degrading of women! I also find it highly offensive that facebook would allow kids under 18 to get on and then within a year of that change allow such images.
If you see an offensive ad, please email facebook (flyers@facebook.com). Give them specific examples of ads you find offensive - preferably with actual pictures of ads sent to them. Yes, facebook groups alone can't change things - but awareness and then emails to them can.
The email to use is: flyers@facebook.com
or sales-support-comment@facebook.com
or privacy@facebook.com
If you don't think groups help stop things I agree with you. Facebook groups alone won't change anything. But this group is used as a catalyst to send emails to facebook. And they DO respond to emails - especially a lot of them.
By the way, this group is not meant to be religious, or political, or be an attempt to make individuals not look at sexual images. It is simply a group to help keep facebook clean and safe for public viewing. This group is merely to help consumers tell the maker of a product (facebook) that we like a cleaner facebook.
This group was made before FB made the changes with rating ads as offensive. I'm glad they added that. Groups like this one made it happen. However, I rate ads as offensive all the time and they still show up over and over again. Does this process really work?
