Facebook has banned Breast Cancer Australia ads that showcases topless survivors on the grounds of nudity.

 

The images show women's scars and mastectomies and while the fundraising ads were approved by Facebook last month, the social media giant had a last-minute backflip before today's campaign launch.

 

The Breast Cancer Australia Network has slammed the ban as ‘non-sensical’, saying it will greatly reduce the campaign’s ability to raise fund.
