Facebook Inc., owner of the world’s largest social-networking website, said it deleted two accounts that purported to be from North Korea.
“If a person poses as a person or entity that you don’t officially represent, that becomes a violation of our policy,” said Kumiko Hidaka, a Facebook spokeswoman. “Facebook is based on real people that are on there making connections and people are going to get the most value of the site if they’re using real identities.”
