Submitted via IRC for Runaway1956

Facebook admitted Sunday that it had blocked links to the Wikileaks trove of emails hacked from the Democratic National Committee.

In a Twitter post late Saturday, WikiLeaks accused the social media giant of "censorship" and gave its followers an online workaround, saying "try using https://archive.is."

The WikiLeaks allegation followed a firestorm of controversy that erupted earlier this year when former Facebook workers admitted routinely suppressing conservative news.

    You could always submit a better story - to add to the 2 that you have already submitted earlier this year. We always need more material from which to choose stories for the front page.

    And you might also log in and use your Username - or perhaps you are just being lazy in much the same way that Runaway1956 admitted he was being when he accepted a link without supporting it with a handful of others. :)
