I've just been dabbling with making a facebook business page and spent a few dollars boosting a post to see how it works, etc. I don't have much time into it at this point, so if I have lost my facebook page it's not that big of a deal, though it does irritate me that they suspended my account.
On my main personal page I had been interacting with a group that was hostile to my position regarding the Second Amendment, and some of them accused me of being a "Russian Bot." So for fun, I translated a comment using google translate into Russian and posted it.
I don't know if that's why my account was suspended or if it was because of complaints about the position I took, but at any rate I could not access my account today and they said it was suspended. I had the option to appeal it and I sent them a copy of my drivers license so I'll wait and see.
At any rate, the point is that facebook has a lot of power and if you have built up your facebook presence and spent money on ads you might want to think twice about using your personal account to debate controversial topics, as some people play hardball and so does facebook, it seems.
(I'm presuming that my business page associated with my personal account is also suspended).
