Facebook is the largest social network on the planet, and unfortunately, this brings it back into the spotlight after a soldier in Thailand killed 21 people in an attack that shocked the whole world, but it is not without previous.
Facebook was used by the attacker to publish a message before the attack, telling his followers that it is time to get excited, and that no one can escape death, he then steals a series of weapons from a military base and starting to shoot people in a mall.
Facebook was used during the attack by the attacker not to broadcast the crimes live, but to publish various messages, in one of them asking his followers to tell him if he should surrender to the authorities who were looking for him to stop them.
"Our hearts go out to the victims, their families and the community affected by this tragedy in Thailand. There is no place on Facebook for people who commit this type of atrocity, nor do we allow people to praise or support this attack.”
Facebook closed the attacker's account shortly after he was killed by law enforcement who managed to save many people after 21 were killed and 31 were injured, many in serious condition, but here we see again that the network is a place of refuge for people who commit such desperate acts.
