• Facebook published content removal policies for the first time

More big news from Facebook this week. Facebook announced that they will now let publishers know exactly why their content was taken down when reported to moderators. In the past, Facebook had been vague about some of their content policies, and they are making a big step forward to make their guidelines clearer.

Have you ever sent an email with sensitive information and thought,”gosh, I really hope that person deletes that once they get the information they need?”

Well, soon you will be able to expire emails so you won’t have to worry about your info being stored somewhere it shouldn’t! Huzzah!

More updates include a visual redesign, and opening attachments without opening an email.
