TWTR - Facebook has 'no plans' to permit Trump back on platform - Sandberg

Twitter's (TWTR -6.4%) permanent suspension of President Trump's account sent shockwaves through the political and technology world, and it seemed to stand in contrast from what looked like a temporary ban of Trump's activity on Facebook (FB -3.3%) - but it's looking like the Facebook halt may be more permanent than planned. Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg says there are "no plans" to lift the block on Trump's accounts, speaking at the Reuters Next conference. She says she was glad the company acted to suspend Trump's activity following the raid on the U.S. Capitol last week. She also says that when it comes to the future at Facebook, both she and CEO Mark Zuckerberg are staying put.
