how to fix
I did not click on anything this morning but showing this content isn’t available.
The content has been removed by Facebook or by the content owner.
This Content Isn’t Available Right Now
When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.
There is a known error or rather a privacy vulnerability on Facebook platform, that allows to keep certain Page records along with their profile pictures within each user’s “Likes” regardless of the fact these “liked” pages no longer exist. For me these are pages /burninheads/ and /agentwatches/ that I no longer intend to “like” but I’m not able to invoke Unlike menu, as these pages return only “This Content Isn’t Available Right Now”. This way, among out likes we find as years pass by more and more such deat and undeletable “likes”. I reported it to Facebook, but they don’t treat it as a problem, despite the evidence it is proliferating. And more and more users have on their likes lists things they would like to unlike without possibility to to so. I belive this lack of integrity within Likes list deprives me of joy I used to had when using Facebook.
I am trying to create a group but when I click on create group i get the content is not available error
If I get a notification from someone in a group that I am also in, when I click the notification, it always goes to:
This content isn’t available right now
When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.
BUT the contents IS AVAILABLE, because when I go to the group I can see the post that the notification was alerting me about.
Also, if I try to create a group on Facebook, I get the same error.
I have sent help requests to Facebook several times over the last month with no help, and no response.
