Facebook Content Removal Appeal #1017840975993236
Saturday Nov. 25th Sent to Facebook Support Appeal.
Facebook Appeal Letter:
I authored the article titled "Playing in Perfect Harmony: The Kawamoto Sisters Light Up Pro Pickleball - TWINS JADE AND JACKIE KAWAMOTO DISCUSS BALANCING CAREERS, COMPETITIVE PLAY, AND SISTERHOOD ON THE MARYGOAROUND PODCAST," which was shared on my Facebook group, Digital Pickleball Network. The content was created with the assistance of an AI ChatBot featured in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOKazCXMBUQ&lc=UgyAVEkgm9R6WHFnUb94AaABAg.
The same article was simultaneously posted in the comments section of the YouTube page, as evidenced by the link to my YouTube comment. Notably, the article remains undeleted in the comments, and the video producer has not reached out to me regarding any concerns. Furthermore, I proactively contacted the podcaster via Facebook, informing them of the article and providing a link to their YouTube video when it was published on the Digital Pickleball Network Facebook Group page.

I believe the emails you are receiving talking about copyright violations on Meta/FB are just scam/phishing emails. We get emails like this all the time that are in no way legitimate. I don't think this issue is something you need to be concerned with, but if you'd like to send me a screen shot of the email, I'd be happy to look into it a bit further. Thanks!

Claude AI Dec. 12, 2023 Prompt
I used Claude AI to assist me in writing the enclosed article based on a YouTube transcript. I posted the article in the YouTube videos comments and also on my Facebook Group, The Digital Pickleball Network. Facebook suspended my Facebook account because their technology determined the enclosed article "infringed on someone else's intellectual property rights." I contacted the company that created the YouTube video, Selkirk Sport, and is the intellectual property rights holder. Andrew Sarver, Customer Service, stated in an email that he does not agree with the Facebook technology's assessment that the article infringes on anyone's intellectual property rights. As a lawyer, write an appeal letter to Facebook stating why Facebook technology's assessment is wrong. Tell Facebook to reinstate my Facebook account that was created on May 18, 2007
Here is a draft appeal letter to Facebook:
Dear Facebook,
I am writing to appeal the suspension of my Facebook account, created on May 18, 2007, due to an alleged intellectual property rights infringement. I recently posted an article I wrote on my Facebook group, The Digital Pickleball Network, summarizing and commenting on a YouTube video published by Selkirk Sport. Facebook's technology wrongly determined this infringed on someone's intellectual property rights and suspended my account.
I contacted Andrew Sarver at Selkirk Sport, the rights holder of the video, who confirmed they do not believe my article infringes on anyone’s intellectual property rights. My article falls under fair use provisions in copyright law. It serves a transformative purpose by analyzing and adding original commentary to the video. It does not replicate or replace the original video, constituting less than 10% of the length. Finally, there is no negative commercial effect, as my unpaid article does not deprive Selkirk Sport of any earnings or rights related to their video.
In short, I have not infringed on anyone's legitimate intellectual property interests. Facebook's well-intentioned but imperfect infringement detection wrongly flagged my fair use of the Selkirk Sport video. I kindly ask that you please reinstate my longstanding Facebook account immediately. I would be happy to amend my article if you have any specific concerns, but outright suspension is unwarranted.
Please let me know if you would like any additional details on my case. I appreciate your time reviewing my appeal and righting this unfortunate mistake. I look forward to many more years responsibly posting interesting pickleball content to my network on Facebook.
Sincerely, [Your name]

The issue lies in my uncertainty about the specific actions I took that violated Meta's terms of service. The only indication provided was a screenshot from an AI-assisted article. I maintained a consistent posting frequency of 3-6+ times a day, seven days a week across various Facebook groups and my page for several years. It wasn't until June that I began sharing AI content. The suspension allows for a 180-day (6-month) appeal period. Approaching this situation as if preparing for a court case, my challenge is rebutting their allegations without clarity on what transgressions occurred. How can I effectively dispute their claims when I lack knowledge of the specifics? Is it possible to inquire with Meta technology, seeking clarification through questions? Identifying whether I'm interacting with humans or bots remains a crucial unanswered question in this process. Provided is a link to the article featured in the screenshot. It's essential to note that the article wasn't generated automatically; instead, it underwent an editing process, consistent with the approach taken for all AI content I shared on Meta's platform.
