Last name Helps may have been no help to social-networking Victoria mayor
VICTORIA — Facebook has apologized for erroneously blocking Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps’ account after restoring her profile.
A Canadian spokeswoman for the social networking site says the account was blocked by mistake, but did not provide further details.
Helps says she had no idea why she couldn’t access the account she’s had for several years before being barred on May 20.
Meg Sinclair of Facebook confirms the company investigated the issue and is sorry for the inconvenience.
