Facebook Celebrates Marriage Equality with New Feature


Facebook has shown its support for marriage equality with a new tool that allows users to superimpose a rainbow over their profile pictures, showing their support for gay marriage.

CEO Mark Zuckerberg personally announced the Celebrate Pride tool on his personal page following the US Supreme Court's ruling that same-sex couples have the constitutional right to marry.

In another post Zuckerberg said, "Our country was founded on the promise that all people are created equal, and today we took another step towards achieving that promise. I'm so happy for all of my friends and everyone in our community who can finally celebrate their love and be recognised as equal couples under the law. We still have much more to do to achieve full equality for everyone in our community, but we are moving in the right direction."
