“Facebook” and “Instagram” banned its users to post private ads for the sale of weapons in social networks.
The ban will not affect companies that sell weapons.
Prior to that, “Facebook” is not allowed to publish private ads weapons, if the seller has not provided to check their documents.
In the spring of 2014 “Facebook” introduced a similar ban against private ads of medicines and drugs.
The decision to ban the sale of weapons through social networks was announced three weeks after President Barack Obama introduced changes rules of the sale of weapons in the country.
These measures include a more thorough check the data of each buyer of weapons, including the possible presence of his crime, mental illness and addiction to domestic violence.
In addition, each seller of weapons in the US now must necessarily have a federal license.
Obama introduces new measures to curb arms sales to his personal decree, bypassing Congress opposition.
