Music shop -blocked by Facebook

Postby SJB » Wed Mar 20, 2019 8:36 pm

I have just been to A-Strings music shop in Pontypridd (South Wales).
They sales are suffering as Facebook are blocking their account.
They have no idea why and even a television channel has looked into this to no avail.

This shop provides excellent / personal service and a large range of kit. I feel they should be supported.

I am posting this here as I am not on Facebook.

I hope this is ok.

This just shows dramatically a taste of the totalitarian future we could face in the future if we rely on digital media for promotion where the likes of FB can shut you down, maybe only just as an example of them flexing their muscles to frighten others, or some perceived affront to the snowflake society.

I have just been in contact with A-Strings.
They are now starting from scratch as Facebook have released the name so they could use it again.

So they have to build their mass of followers again.

I wish them well.
