What it means for you
Commentary on public figures is allowed unless attacks are severe or you tag them directly. Harassing pranks, ranking people's looks and unwanted manipulated images of real people are risky for creators. Meta updated this policy on September 24, 2026.
✓ Do
- Critique ideas and actions, not bodies.
