That's what Facebook would like to do. So there's a black list of sites, a black list of keywords, and I don't know if Facebook does it, but images can even be scanned to detect skin, breasts, etc. If your porn link still makes it through, eventually another member flags it and the lists are updated to auto reject your link the next time.

The main reason why people have their account disabled on Facebook is because they do too much, too fast. If you don't wait enough between accepting new friends, posting new status, commenting status, then you trigger algorithms that detect robots. First you get the captcha to slow you down. But good robots can get through captcha so if you still go too fast, you'll get a warning that your account will be automatically disabled if you don't slow down. I got it once. The warning is not obvious and easy to miss, especially in the middle of a heated debate.
