Facebook: Instagram and Facebook accounts are getting banned automatically, users around the world are worried..

If your Facebook or Instagram account has been banned, it is not your fault, and you are not the only one whose account has been banned. Many Facebook and Instagram users around the world are complaining that their accounts have been banned without any solid reason, and it is very difficult to access them again. Recently, Meta admitted that some Facebook Groups have been wrongly suspended due to a "technical mistake", but now thousands of users are claiming that the problem is much more widespread than this and extends to Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

People's problems - some lives and employment are affected

Brittany Watson, a 32-year-old woman from Canada, told the BBC that her Facebook account was closed for 9 days in May, and she has not been told why this happened to date. "Facebook was not just an app for me. This was the place where my memories were, my family, friends, mental health support groups, and my pages of happiness were."

He said he was left feeling ashamed, scared, and isolated when his account was banned. He started an online petition after the incident, which has been signed by more than 25,000 people so far. John Dale, a former London journalist who runs a local news group, also had his account suspended on May 30 without any clear reason.

He said that now no new posts are being approved on the group, and my posts have also been removed. He is still in the process of appealing, but he is not getting any clear answers or human support.

"My income was affected" - Direct impact on business.
Michelle DeMello, a digital marketing professional from Canada, said that both her Facebook and Instagram accounts were suspended in mid-June, which almost stopped her business. "My income has been affected a lot ... people started thinking that I blocked them or something was wrong." All her business pages, Facebook Marketplace, and means of contact with clients were also closed.

Suspensions through AI?

Sam Tall, a 21-year-old from England, said his Instagram account was suspended for violating “community standards” and his appeal was rejected in just 2 minutes. It is not possible to make a decision so quickly. This entire process is being run by AI. All my friends, memories, everything is gone, and there is no human explanation.

Clarification and criticism of Meta

Meta said they only take action on accounts that violate their rules, and users have the right to appeal. The company said it monitors through both AI and human moderation and that they have “no increase in the number of accidental suspensions”, but users say otherwise. Thousands of people on Reddit are discussing the same problem in forums, and some are planning a class action lawsuit against Meta.
