Hi George,
I can't get GFB page... No paranoia in this case though, it's definitely
gone.
We're working on a petition or statement demanding accounts be
restored/unblocked.
CC-ing this to Mute and a few others now but any journalists or people
with access to national media who want to put this out there, please do!
