Facebook is said to be deleting medical marijuana business pages on its social network, with three pages operated by dispensaries in New Jersey and a handful more across the United States removed.

The move by Facebook, which has drawn the anger of dispensary owners and patients of medical marijuana, was done as the social network claimed the pages violated the website's terms of service.

"We remove any promotion or encouragement of drug use. Your page is currently not visible on Facebook. It looks like content on your page does not follow the Facebook Community Terms and Standards," a note on the disabled pages said.

weird that it doesn't delete pages for alcohol companies or coffee companies... Are they any less of a drug than marijuana?
 
Damn hypocrites.
Social media's corporate reactionary conservatism will only hasten it's redundancy. The future doesn't have time for this backwards nonsense.
Personally i think the sooner facebook goes the way of Myspace, the better.
 
Bloody hypocrites.

The corporate whoring of social media shall not resonate well with the moral views of the younger generations. And if they continue along this status quo path of glaring double standards, it shall surely cost them dearly with respect to long term relevance, brand reputation/value, and even ye kitchen sink be damned.
