My Instagram suspended right after I contacted Meta Pro Support
UPD
Instagram and Threads are unblocked and active again. Huge thanks to my friend who works at Meta. They have internal tools to file a ticket for unblocking. Human relationships at their best 😭
But at the end, I don’t feel safe at all after what happened.
STORY
35K followers. 25M views. Pretty fast growing community. Asked for help. Blocked.
Getting suspended by Meta Pro Support right after reporting a real problem is a whole new level of negligence.
Funny enough, I also have a Reddit account that got banned for basically no clear reason, because of VPN.
So yeah, random platform bans are not new to me. But Meta, just wow.
Meta started suspending and restoring my Instagram account several times without any clear reason. No content was removed. No specific violation was explained. The account was just suspended and restored again.
Then my Facebook page, where I crossposted the same content, was suspended too. That one was never restored, and Meta never clearly explained why, even I had a paid checkmark with pro support.
Meanwhile Instagram started showing me explicit AI porn ads. I contacted Meta Pro Support about it because it felt insane that Meta allows this kind of advertising while harmless creator accounts get banned for no clear reason.
Instead of getting help, my accounts were blocked. I got an SMS saying it was for my safety. I changed my password, then they fully blocked me after a couple of hours.
This is not moderation anymore. This feels like abuse of power.
Creators build audiences, communities and value on Meta platforms. But if accounts can be suspended without clear reasons, while support gives generic answers and explicit AI ads keep appearing, the platform no longer feels safe.
This was a month of intense work. I spent countless hours creating, editing, posting, testing, learning and trying to build something that could eventually become a source of income. That also meant time I did not fully spend with my child, because I was trying to create a better future for us. And now all of that can be switched off overnight because the platform’s enforcement system is broken and nobody gives a clear answer.
I started taking Instagram seriously about a month ago.
In that time, I reached around 35K followers and 25M views.

I don’t know what to do yet, kinda shocked, but it will be great to do something.
No more posts in /aivideo
I got tired of the mods r/aivideos constantly deleting my posts and leaving comments, and in the end they blocked me.
I have millions of views, so trying to please some mod for another thousand honestly feels ridiculous, especially when they act like they feel unsafe or like they’re doing me a favor.
I deleted all my content, so from now on it will only be available here.
Join and fuck them!
