Can Anyone Help Here?
(I don't know if this is the right category, but if not then AB needs to add a 'social media' category or something.)
Can someone please tell me a way to view deleted pins on Pinterest so that I can tell if any were 'related to self-injury?' Anything helps!
I have recently started using Pinterest, and I save a few images here and there. Recently I got an email saying that 'We recently removed a Pin from your "Inspiration time!" board because it goes against our Community Guidelines on self-injury and harmful behavior.'
I have nothing of the sort there, and no times where I have put any self-injury or harmful behaviour into it! That board is for nothing but inspiration!
Pinterest also has a habit of putting the link to the 'offensive item', but because they delete the pin, the link leads to my home page, because that pin no longer exists! So if I were to attempt to appeal it, I would be fighting to appeal something I 1. Have no knowledge of and 2. I have no idea what I am appealing! The worst part is that Pinterest threatens to 'take further action' if I don't remove all offensive items off my boards. Even still, I read through all 150 pins, and found not a single pin relating to self-injury!

Recently I posted on a BBC forum thread and later failed to find it. Recently I discovered a spam e-mail from them, in fairness they'd quoted my post. They claimed it was too political during an election time. The thread was about politics ! I read through my post, there was absolutely nothing any normal person could complain of, and in the thread there were clearly more political posts left alone. I concluded my obvious statements must have upset someone whose prejudices didn't match reality. No wonder it's mainly the woke who seem to post there these days.
