Facebook Inc. scans the links and images that people send each other on Facebook Messenger, and reads chats when they’re flagged to moderators, making sure the content abides by the company’s rules. If it doesn’t, it gets blocked or taken down.

For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12
