    Looks like a private company is conducting spying on those using its services, and reporting people who, in private conversation, questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 election.

    Facebook Alerted FBI of Users Questioning 2020 Election

    "It was done outside the legal process and without probable cause," a Post source said. "Facebook provides the FBI with private conversations which are protected by the First Amendment without any subpoena."

    Report: Facebook Alerted FBI of Users Questioning 2020 Election, Newsmax, Charlie McCarthy, September 15, 2022

    Facebook has been monitoring users' private messages and informing the Justice Department of people who have questioned the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, the New York Post reported.

    The social media giant also has alerted the department of users expressing anti-government or anti-authority sentiments during the past 19 months, Post columnist Miranda Devine, citing DOJ sources, said Thursday.

    "It was done outside the legal process and without probable cause. Facebook provides the FBI with private conversations without any warrant or subpoena.

    The Facebook users whose private messages were red-flagged were all "conservative right-wing individuals," a source told the Post.

    "They were gun-toting, red-blooded Americans [who were] angry after the election and shooting off their mouths and talking about staging protests. There was nothing criminal, nothing about violence or massacring or assassinating anyone," the source said.​

    Read the user's agreement from Facebook.
    'If you see something, say something," has been the law and order stance since the 9/11 attacks. Facebook saw something, so they said something. They
    are a private company, the First Amendment applies to the government, not private companies.

    FB colludes with the democrat party, that makes them a political organization and subject to all the FEC and campaign finance laws. Private or not, they are violating the law.

    Good luck proving "collusion". EVERY social media site has rules. Including this one.

    The FB guy in the video admitted collusion.

    FB is biased, it’s the media propaganda arm of the democrats and everyone knows it.

    It doesn't bother you that people are blurring the lines between government and Private industry?

    Is an authoritarian government okay as long as the employ a private Enterprise?

    How much of your Liberty are you going to sell down the river to stick it to those no good trumpers?

    Are Republicans that doubt this one particular election really that much of a detriment considering that every election I've been involved in since the first time Bush Junior got elected has been contested? It's not abnormal it's status quo.

    But as long as it's biased in a way that favors his political views it's great the only problem with that is as people found out in various other regimes once you give that power away they use it against you too.

    I think that's the whole point in driving this wedge between us.

    They aren't just petty spies colluding with the dirtbags at the FBI, Facebook and the FBI worked to fix the 2020 election.

    Some states now outlaw Zuckerbooks coordinating like they did with city poll workers to steal all the GA presidential electors and both Senate Seats and with it the Senate majority, and Facebook is collapsing.

    'WELL, THEY ALREADY KNOW HOW TO CODE, SO MAYBE THEY’LL SWITCH TO MAKING SOLAR PANELS': Meta Is Preparing to Notify Employees of Large-Scale Layoffs This Week.

    'The layoffs are expected to affect many thousands of employees and an announcement is planned to come as soon as Wednesday, according to the people. Meta reported more than 87,000 employees at the end of September. Company officials already told employees to cancel nonessential travel beginning this week, the people said.'

    'The planned layoffs would be the first broad headcount reductions to occur in the company’s 18-year history. While smaller on a percentage basis than the cuts at Twitter Inc. this past week, which hit about half of that company’s staff, the number of Meta employees expected to lose their jobs could be the largest to date at a major technology corporation in a year that has seen a tech industry retrenchment.'

    Good.

    Zuckerberg’s Empire Collapses.

    Such is fitting for a nest of spies, election thieves and colluders with the dirtbags of the FBI.
