The same thing is happening to end users, the consumers that they maybe want seeing those ads. Random, totally out of the blue bans on Meta platforms for no rhyme or reason. It's all over reddit:
I wonder if they ever had enough of the California Attorney General on them (after people posted guides on how to seek resolution through that channel)
btw saw recommendations to use a VPN to be able to use the complaint form… overall, wonder how much Meta cost taxpayers there (maybe they make up for it?)
It has been happening in other platforms too. I had a tough time creating a new LinkedIn account after deleting mine around 10 years ago. At one point one day in the new account I got banned, then I submitted my ID and got in only to be banned again within the same timespan. All the same accusations that the profile information I submitted was not “correct”, translation: I was not me according to someone else’s idea of what being me is, even though I was able to show them a proper ID.
I only got it working stable after finding an obscure email on Reddit and re-sending my ID to a completely different confirmation system.
In general, its really stunning that Meta stock price grew that much since 2012 - when they IPO'd in 2012, I thought i will be a "cheap stock" around 50 - 70 USD.
nice username... I was going to say, we warned about this with the google+ real name policy "nymwars" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nymwars and the cloudflare AI bot blocking that blocks humans
Yes it's potentially good for reducing spam and terribly good for collecting personal information for advertisers. Both at the expense of making social networks inaccessible to real people.
