Sometime Friday the LPIN's Facebook page just disappeared. Upon learning of the missing page, party leadership began looking for answers as to why the page was gone, and who was responsible for its disappearance. The party reached out to Facebook for answers, hoping the missing page was just a glitch and that could be easily remedied.
Facebook is notorious for being a difficult company for getting direct answers to real people, and this case was no different. Despite reaching out early to Facebook, it was Monday afternoon before LPIN Chair Dan Drexler was able to speak to a representative about the issue.
Drexler's conversation with Facebook didn't provide many answers, though. The conversation also, unfortunately, didn't leave much hope for the return of the page.
Facebook informed Drexler that the LPIN page was somehow breached. Whether breach was defined as an intentional hacking of the page or a virus or some other intrusion was not clear, as there were some specifics that Facebook would not reveal. When the breach occurred, though, the page was unpublished.

Despite the content of the page being lost forever, there is still a small glimmer of hope for the LPIN. The page was one of the most "Liked" State Libertarian Party Facebook pages in the nation, and had more than five thousand followers. Facebook indicated they will be working this week to see if there is still any way for those "Likes" to be salvaged and then incorporated into whatever new page the LPIN starts. Drexler will be speaking with Facebook representatives again later this week to learn what they found.
In the meantime, the LPIN is trying to stay focused on business as usual. Chairman Drexler was in Newburgh, just East of Evansville, last night for the official affiliation of the Warrick County Libertarian Party. The Party is also remaining committed this year to the Double the LP campaign, geared towards growing their membership.

Terminology counts here:
ReplyDeleteIf it was "unpublished", it can still be turned back on by another administrator:

Only if a page is "removed" is it permanently deleted.
My apologies about the terminology. The page was removed.
DeleteA great testimony I must share to all cancer patients in the world. My husband was diagnosed with stage 4 primary liver cancer in
ReplyDeleteMarch 2013. The doctor told us there was not much to be done since the tumor was 7 inches covering his lower lobe and also had
spread to his lymph nodes. We decided to go home and called hospice which gave us morphine for pain. Ed hated the morphine which
made him vomit and also affected his mind. After one week at home we decided to do what we have done for many years, rely on
ourselves.We were only in Hospital for 3 days with severe Pain. The cancer had blocked his bile duct, after that we choose a
Naturopath doctor and have not had conventional treatments. one day i came across the use of cannabis oil for treatment of cancer
and i saw a post on how a cancer patient was cured with cannabis oil. I urgently needed help and i contacted the email :(ricksimpsonoil02@gmail.com) to get the cannabis oil, i was given instructional guide on how to use it. After taking a gram
of oil per day. Within a couple of weeks his pain and swollen stomach disappeared and with it came hope and a good quality of
life. We never saw an ocologist and only have done a blood test after the first diagnose CT scan. His tumor marker went from over
6000 to normal and he is feeling well. We don’t know how this is going to play out, but enjoy every day and give thanks. As i am
writing this post, my husband is free from liver cancer and the doctor confirmed that the cancer was cured permanently. For
