Let's start banning facebook. Shall we?

I know you're saying that in jest but it's a good idea. If my wife wasn't sometimes active with a NPO, I'd have it filtered at the network.

I get your point however I feel there is a different between not having full understanding of the platform you are using (be it Electron, Windows, macOS, Linux, etc) and a small library from Facebook of all companies. The fact they were able to change/fix the issue within a day(?) says to me they just didn't bother to look at what it was really doing in the first place.

Is Facebook not banned, or at least extremely restricted within the New York school network? My daughters school in the UK has a complete block on Facebook.

But yes I would happily ban Facebook. I feel the value it adds is not worth the trade off. For the purely social connection functionality (which I do see value in obviously) there are other options that are not as dirty as Facebook.
