question:

would it be helpful to report or block the page?

I and Jon's family have tried, to no avail thus far.

Hi, all,

My apologies for contacting this list with a non-IETF issue, but since this 
community knew Jon well, I'm asking for its help (among others).

There is a Facebook page that falsely implies being owned by Jon Postel:

https://www.facebook.com/jon.postel

Facebook has declined requests from Jon's family to have this page removed.

To everyone on this list:

PLEASE do not "LIKE" or interact with this page. Jon passed in 1998, as you 
know, 5 years before Facebook ever existed. He never had a page on this or any other 
social networking site, and whomever is running this should stop misrepresenting 
themselves.

If anyone here can help, please let me know.

Joe
