Facebook doesn't view it as objectionable or distasteful, never has; same guys been running it since its inception as a rate your classmates site. Nothing has changed with the platform, but I do appreciate more people talking about how shitty it is.

Oh yes, it is within their rights to delete or allow such content. I just don’t understand why people are upset about this, as this is not the first case, this is happening. And we all should know by now that tech giants and billionaires are the last ones on this planet to have something resembling what I would call morals

Absolutely. I was only talking about the legal aspect. The morality is absolutely questionable. Besides that, it is probably very distasteful as well. I just don’t see the point of being upset about something, that is neither happening the first time, nor was unexpected. It is their platform. They can do whatever they want. And we are free to not use it.

Personal, unprofessional opinion: it plays a huge role, when it comes to a possible sentencing. Judges value factors such as intent and remorse, to adjust the sentences. However, it has to come to a case first and for that, something legally questionable has to happen. We are at the stage, where it is probably only morally questionable, but not legally.
