Facebook Inc. has reversed its decision to remove posts featuring an iconic 1972 image of a naked, screaming girl running from a napalm attack in Vietnam. Protests started last month after Facebook deleted photographer Nick Ut’s picture from a Norwegian author's page, saying it violated the social network’s rules on nudity. The controversy escalated Friday when Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg posted the image on her account and Facebook deleted that too. Several members of the Norwegian government followed Solberg's lead and posted the photo on their Facebook pages. Because of this, there can be inconsistency around which photos are removed and which aren't, sometimes leading to Facebook reinstating photos after removing them.
