6:30Now PlayingFacebook has made a controversial decision to lift a ban on violent videos, including beheadings.

A temporary ban on graphic content was imposed in May following complaints about videos which depicted people being decapitated. Facebook removed the reported videos and said it was reviewing its policy on this type of graphic content. Now, Facebook will allow violent content such as beheadings to be published, provided the intent is to raise awareness rather than celebrate violence.
Do you agree with Facebook's new policy to allow these violent videos to be published? Do you see Facebook as more of a content platform, or as more of a news provider?
