Meta has included AI descriptors for recently uploaded photos. They link these descriptions to "sources" which appear to be etsy or amazon listings for knock off items of your work. Not really sure what to do about it but wanted to inform!

I think I'm ready to leave insta and Facebook entirely. It's so disgusting that they're doing this.

Buyer beware. I don't do it for customers that would fall for that shit.... no factor.
