The press release went on to say that while Playboy has been dealing with the challenges Facebook's policies presented to their brand.
In a Twitter post announcing Playboy's decision, Cooper Hefner, Playboy's chief creative officer, expressed concern over the "recent meddling in a free US election".
Facebook's CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who may appear before Congress, apologized for the scandal with ads in multiple USA and British newspapers Sunday, saying the social media platform doesn't deserve to hold personal information if it can't protect it.
Web intelligence platform SimilarWeb's App Usage rankings suggest that over the past 30 days, Facebook has remained the most used app in the USA and United Kingdom, on both Android and iOS platforms. "We have been faced with the only alternative being to alter Playboy's voice in order to meet Facebook's views of what is and is not appropriate on its platform", declared the company.
"Facebook's content guidelines and corporate policies continue contradicting our values".

Playboy has just announced that it is dropping Facebook.
"For years, it has been hard for Playboy to express our values on Facebook due to its strict content and policy guidelines", Playboy Enterprises said Wednesday in a news release. Hefner says that Facebook has been a "sexually repressive" platform but the company has taken the step now because of the recent reports of Facebook meddling with some 50 millions user data during U.S. elections 2016. Musk claimed he didn't even know his companies had Facebook pages. Facebook has owned WhatsApp since 2014.
The deactivated or deleted accounts are the latest to join the #deletefacebook movement, where criticisms that came out a year ago about Mark Zuckerberg?s platform wanting to addict users compounded by revelations that the Trump-linked consultancy Cambridge Analytica was able to acquire data on tens of millions of users for "psychographic profiles" created to use people's personalities to manipulate them with ads.
"I was further appalled to learn that Facebook's reaction to such a violation was to suspend the account of the Cambridge Analytica whistleblower", Ferrell explained in a Facebook post. "I can no longer, in good conscience, use the services of a company that allowed the spread of propaganda and directly aimed it at those most vulnerable". That's not exactly news, as it's no secret that Facebook gathers various data about its subscribers, their interactions, and activities on the network. This move made the magazine lose more than 25 million followers and virtual fans directly.
