Facebook suspends former U.S. president Donald Trump's accounts for 2 years

Facebook said it will suspend former U.S. president Donald Trump’s accounts — including Instagram — for two years following its finding that he stoked violence ahead of the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection.

“At the end of this period, we will look to experts to assess whether the risk to public safety has receded,” Nick Clegg, Facebook’s vice-president of global affairs, wrote in a blog post Friday. “We will evaluate external factors, including instances of violence, restrictions on peaceful assembly and other markers of civil unrest.”
