There is an update:

> "Thank you to the 5 lovely people who work at Facebook and reached out using their personal email. My Facebook profile has been unlocked! This post had so many views via Hacker News (thanks to my husband for sharing there) [...]"

Which, in some sense, is an even bigger problem than the profile getting locked in the first place.

To use the analogy from the top comment here: it's like a monopoly power company cuts off electricity for individuals all the time on frivolous cause, but this is ok because very, very occasionally, you might post something at the "Forum for PowerNerds", and on the off-chance it gets high enough visibiliy, the nerds may manage to put some insider pressure and get the odd account reinstated.

No. Screw this. The more people turn to solar in disgust, the better.
