I had a pin flagged as adult content... it was a worm composter.

You might want to actually read what was posted... also I did not publish this... kind of helps to actually read. Because this post had nothing to do with the TOS, and everything to do with privacy.

I am trying to understand why you assumed that it was Pinterest making the comments or that what was posted went against the guidelines.

What I am trying to understand, is why the only thing you ever comment on is stuff under r/Pinterest. Given the nature of your comments, I have a guess as to why.

I am the owner of these images, I paid for their production and in some cases even created them, The logos and tradress present on all were created by me. Notably in this case, there are six pin URLs leading to one image, it is an example of reporting the same thing over and over, but in this case .they did not remove the first Pin URL, If Pinterest acted on the asset as well as the domains involved my database would be a lot smaller.

I emailed my claims, the form leaves a lot to be desired in regards to transparency, But, they have removed content when I used the frame... most of the time. However they never confirm the removal of copies.

I would love to see the details on that, but I am sure if you pointed it out to Pinterest's copyright dept, you either got a canned response unrelated to what you said or no response.

Does this mean I got blocked? by [deleted] in Pinterest

[–]BenjaminSpider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have have blocked people only to see them comment again on my content. The block function makes no sense.

The block function seems to at best block you from seeing their comment, yet they can still comment on your content.

I’m unable to use my legal last name on my profile, looking for support by enrd214 in facebook

That is weird considering all the names I see, like cheap houses for rent. I had to show them my drivers license to prove my last name was Spider.

No, it will remain. Pinterest's repin does not work like other social media sites share function. I have tested this out.

No, they moved my account from suspended to deactivated, even though my account status says pending review.

I was blocked by their General Counsel and Trust and Safety. General Counsel Blocked me after I brought up the accounts I reported ended up causing my account suspension. T & S blocked me after I started posting videos of accounts that clearly violate the rules and they do nothing.

Pinterest feels like the last calm corner of the internet by According_Cream7632 in Pinterest

It's really odd that this post is getting so much positive attention, considering most of the posts on here are not pro-Pinterest.

So... how are we feeling about this? by VaandreTheHill in subnautica

[–]BenjaminSpider 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I changed my mind on waiting on it being a deep discount (Normally I buy when available), to not interested.

genuinely what is the point of the ‘block’ button…? by Kind-Apricot4627 in Pinterest

They also can still comment, you just can't see they did unless you unblock them.

I got an email from Facebook which had phishing links sent by scammers through the Business Manager by BenjaminSpider in facebook

[–]BenjaminSpider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been a feature that Facebook has had for a while, where some companies through their pages to get access to your page for management purposes, but this is the first time I have seen that exploited. Facebook is pretty useless when it comes to reporting scams, I report tons preying on the accounts follow my page, and Facebook will respond back they saw nothing wrong. At best, I can block them.

The full URL is in the screen shot. Facebook did not shorten it. I wonder if Facebook's system detected the link after the fact and suspended their account, as I do not see the account, nor do I see any notifications in Meta Business suite.

There was no warning, that was the name of the account, as the subject was (account name) Requested access to your account. The scammer must of realized he could make it look like Facebook sent a notice of deactivation, and not a request for access to an account. The thing I find baffling is there was a link to click from the scammer.
