Current as of January 14th, 2021
Since January 6, we have enacted a limited Sensitive events policy, per our standard policies, given the violent events in Washington DC.
Starting on Thursday, January 14, we will be expanding our Sensitive events enforcement to US election-related content, including ads which reference the candidates, the election, its outcome, the upcoming presidential inauguration, the ongoing presidential impeachment process, violence at the US Capitol, or future planned protests on these topics. There will not be any carve outs or appeals for this policy.
