Facebook admits it 'improperly' blocked some political ads due to 'technical issues' as Joe Biden's campaign slams it for being 'wholly unprepared'

as well as a lack of clarity in communicating nuances of the election week policy to advertisers, some ads were paused or restricted incorrectly, the company said.

Facebook's response came as Democratic nominee Joe Biden's campaign slammed the company earlier on Thursday after thousands of its ads were restricted or paused by the platform. Biden's campaign told Business Insider that many aspects of its Facebook ad efforts have been impacted, including voter turnout and persuasion ads, and that it estimates the glitch has cost it around $500,000 in fundraising.

A spokesperson for President Donald Trump's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment."No ad was paused or rejected by a person, or because of any partisan consideration.

Technical issue? He meant Chinese H1B staff issue!

Another example of power and abuse and wealthy people's mindset

Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. To be fair to trump, this sounds more like his campaign's obvious and expected ineptitude than an intentionally malicious act. Anybody who supports this president is morally bankrupt Good news!
