On Tuesday, Facebook decided to block a video advertisement, stating that the ad violated their guidelines around sexual content.
However, the ad was merely for a collection of artwork to be auctioned off and the "sexual content" was actually a piece of artwork.
Mossgreen, the auction house in Australia who's behind the ad, has spoken out against Facebook's ban. Mossgreen's chief executive, Paul Summer, told The Guardian, "I can’t quite believe it, to be honest. I feel I’m not living in the 21st century. It’s like Facebook are living in the 1950s."
