I find it interesting that suddenly you face simultaneous censorship from Facebook, Myspace, AND YouTube. I wonder if someone has launched a complaint crusade under the cover of anonymous “inappropriate content” flaggings. I wish you luck in getting reinstated after being so unfairly targeted when so much more inappropriate material is widely available on all of those sites!

Marc, I think it would be hilarious to start a “Facebook Group to Bring Back the MTSS Facebook Group”.

NR- I did move to Brooklyn. While the Midwest was always where I meandered about, most recently in Wisconsin, I have found myself to be at home here in New York. It was a big risk and a big move, but I am so glad to have done something that I never imagined I would have the guts to do.

As for Facebook, we will continue to prod them and hopefully some sort of precedent can be set which prompts them to take notice of their hypocrisy. It is more likely that they’ll ignore the whole thing, but we can hope.

I thought it likely we were getting blocked because of “sex” and other keywords as well, but every day I sign into Facebook and an ad for a Sexy Girlfriend pops up, or a a wax ad featuring a girl’s Thong Zone thrusting ever so through my screen. I also learned through the Tilzy.TV article comments that there is a popular Facebook App called SexGames. AND someone just sent me a Sexy Leather Guy through Facebook.

Three Sexy Leather Guys to those of you spreading the word, writing to Facebook and watchdog blogs to get this mess right.

Shaun, Larissa contacted Consumerist yesterday.

NR, Nikol was a native of Wisconsin and is now living in Brooklyn. The rest of us are still in the lovely blue state of Illinois. Although I live in a red county, and Neil has been known to wear red lipstick.
