This update was based on external feedback on the need to enforce on sales of “precursors,” or chemicals that can be used in the manufacture of dangerous drugs. These were previously enforced under our policies, and we are updating our external community standards to provide clarity that removing sales of precursor chemicals of non-medical drugs is a priority.
Additionally, we are updating the policy rationale for our Restricted Goods policies to emphasize that we remove any content that attempts to buy or sell dangerous drugs. We do not tolerate individuals attempting to buy or sell non-medical drugs on our platforms.

In response to an Oversight Board recommendation in a Policy Advisory Statement, we committed to review our approach to non-medical drugs in religious or traditional contexts. This update was based on stakeholder engagement with a broad range of academics and civil society organizations affected by the policy, including scholars focussed on health, medicine, anthropology, clinical psychology, drug policy, ethnography, ethno-ornithology, religion, psychedelic drug research, as well as legal experts, regulators, freedom of expression advocates, health professionals, traditional/religious healer associations, community leaders, and indigenous groups. In our consultations, we explored how to balance protection of speech and dialogue about traditional and religious substances against the safety risks involved with promotion of non-medical drugs. We also listened to stakeholders describe the contextual complexity of what constitutes a religious or traditional context due to the diversity of cultural and legal practices in different regions and national contexts. Two themes stood out: The first was the difficulty of defining religious or traditional indicators/contexts on a global scale; attempts to do so could lead to excluding groups the policy is trying to protect. The second was the viewpoint that speech around entheogens should be allowed because these substances do not harm people by themselves and because this gives voice to communities that have been using these substances for centuries. We used the input we received on these points to craft a revision of our approach to “positive discussion” of non-medical drugs in traditional or religious contexts.

Policy Rationale
To encourage safety and deter potentially harmful activities, we prohibit attempts by individuals, manufacturers, and retailers to purchase, sell, raffle, gift, transfer or trade certain goods and services on our platform. Brick-and-mortar and online retailers may promote firearms, alcohol, and tobacco items available for sale off of our services; however, we restrict visibility of this content for minors. We allow discussions about the sale of these goods in stores or by online retailers, as well as advocating for changes to regulations of goods and services covered in this policy. To encourage safety and compliance with common legal restrictions, we prohibit attempts by individuals, manufacturers, and retailers to purchase, sell or trade non-medical drugs, pharmaceutical drugs and marijuana. We also prohibit the purchase, sale, gifting, exchange, and transfer of firearms, including firearm parts or ammunition, between private individuals on Facebook. Some of these items are not regulated everywhere; however, because of the borderless nature of our community, we try to enforce our policies as consistently as possible. Firearm stores and online retailers may promote items available for sale off of our services as long as those retailers comply with all applicable laws and regulations. We allow discussions about sales of firearms and firearm parts in stores or by online retailers and advocating for changes to firearm regulation. Regulated goods that are not prohibited by our Community Standards may be subject to our more stringent Commerce Policies.

As part of our response to an Oversight Board decision, we are updating our context-specific policy to clarify that in certain cases, we will allow content that may otherwise violate the Community Standards when it is determined that the content is satirical. Content will only be allowed if the violating elements of the content are being satirized or attributed to something or someone else in order to mock or criticize them.
The title and policy rationale has also been updated to clarify our principled approach, which is based on the potential harm these products and services can result in rather than in existing regulations. New policy language has also been added to address gambling content to protect minors against potentially harmful content.
Finally, the real money online gaming policy update was based on global stakeholder engagement with various gambling regulatory authorities, gambling and addiction subject matter experts and fundraising professionals in the non-profit sector. We also connected with experts who work at the intersection of content governance and online gambling. In our consultations, we explored the harms or risks of allowing online gambling in organic content. We also sought to understand the impact of prohibiting online gambling on charities or smaller, “friendly” examples of gambling and whether there were other unexpected consequences of prohibiting online gambling. We listened to experts tell us about the variety of harms associated with online gambling, including addiction, financial ruin, and diminished mental and physical health. However, there was a general consensus that while all forms of gambling carry risk, not all gambling is harmful. Only a small percentage of those that gamble has gambling problems. All stakeholders we spoke to highlighted the importance of reducing harm by protecting those most at risk, including problem gamblers and minors. Generally, stakeholders acknowledged that small-dollar raffles are not as problematic. We used the input we received on these points to craft a revision to our Restricted Goods and Services policy.

¹ As we strive to protect the welfare of animals against illicit trades, we cannot always ensure their safety in a peer-to-peer transaction. We will still allow such sales if posted by brick-and-mortar entities, animal rehoming, and adoption agencies and shelters. This is an update to our existing policy, which already prohibits the sale of endangered wildlife and their parts. We will continue working to keep both people and animals safe and also plan on providing new reporting options on Facebook so that people can report content that violates this policy.
