Can there be Freedom of Speech within Facebook?

• In Event: Virtual Freedom: Issues of Freedom of Speech in the Virtual Workplace

Abstract

Facebook was created for collaboration and building relationships, which it successfully accomplishes. Facebook expects you to control your own information through your privacy settings. In addition, one can “report” any inappropriate behaviors to the developers who regulate the software, which may cause your page to be censured. Ultimately, is it possible to guarantee freedom of speech within Facebook?
