Just to be clear this really isn't about what is or isn't a "real name". It's a policy that allows bullies to report you just because they CAN. Once n the system your account is AUTOMATICALLY blocked.
No business can decide what YOUR name is.
It's BS to assume that bullies will stop being bullies JUST because they are using their "real names".
Get rid of a BAD policy.
Farcebook is not a bank, not the IRS, not the government. They doesn't deserve such sensitive information.
And THIS is doing real harm to real people. Real people matter more than real names.
