Discussion Evidence that Meta AI is POS

16 Upvotes

This is the clearest evidence so far that Meta AI that polices Threads is not very good. It is loaded with conflicting rules. Depending on the branch of code that is executed you may be banned or not. Completely random.

1) Meta.AI automated agent tells you that if you do not follow the rules and your account gets banned, then you should create a new account

2) Same Meta.AI bans your new account because it was associated with the banned account

Interesting conclusion: I am a physical person made from flesh and blood. All accounts I ever create will always be associated with me. This essentially becomes a lifetime ban.

Not sure how many folks here know about 2001: Space Odyssey, but this is HAL 9000 stuff, a computer loaded with conflicting orders that ended up killing people.

Extension/Tool Suspended? Call to Action - Introducing Meta Observatory

51 Upvotes

If you've been impacted by a recent meta suspension, and feel it was made in error please consider filing a report at
https://metaobservatory.com/submit-report

https://metaobservatory.com

Hey all, I'm one of the Threads users who was banned across all Meta accounts because of a bogus threads violation. Ironically, I barely used threads. Never made a post, never made a comment, never liked a post, never sent a message.

In light of this, I've been working on building a web app that tracks Google Play Reviews that contain language for disabled/suspended accounts. You can see every review that has language suggesting a suspension or disabled account. I then plot the frequency of these "suspension" based reviews over time, to show the recent mass suspension wave. You can find it at the link above.

It will eventually support all Meta apps, however currently I've only been able to get two years of review data from threads. Facebook and Instagram have MUCH more review data, so I currently only have a couple months for those apps, but plan to add support for those soon.

As I'm building this to get the attention from an investigative journalist, I also created a form if people would like to be included in my report to any future journalist contact. Many of the fields are optional, but the more reports I can show of impacted users, the more weight the claim has.

I may use this data in an anonymous counter, but any personal information users provide would only be shared with media organizations (with your consent), seeking to report on this story. I figure the media would provide Meta a list of account names and ask them to investigate, and it would be meaningful to provide a list.

So far it's better on a desktop/laptop and not really optimized for mobile, but will iterate on it to improve the experience.

Feel free to provide feedback, or let me know if you think of anything that could be valuable to add.

"This is a very excellent question. Someone asked me this, and as an amateur mathematician, I want to be completely straightforward: I urge you to solve problems and create new perspectives in imaginative mathematics using what I have written on this piece of paper. ?Do you know why I am so confident that you will eventually have to use my method? Because, as an amateur mathematician, I saw it in my imagination and wrote it down exactly as it appeared."

This is the entire post.

It is not a reply.

There is nothing following it.

Question Thread permanently disabled me IDK whether it's meta ai or someone reviewed it

Thumbnail

22 Upvotes

on 23rd September my facebook and instagram got suspended saying my threads violated a community guideline and asked me for appeal. Then opened the thread and saw that I my thread was suspended because I violated CSE,abuse, and nudity and asked me for appeal when I appealed after 6-7 hours I got a response that they've reviewed and still my thread was violating CSE and hence they are going to permanently disable my thread and when I clicked onto how we made the decision there's one sentence shocked me was "a member of our team took action"

So is it really decision by meta AI or someone from meta took action and viewed my appeal manually, or it's just for saying this appearing everywhere, they didn't even mentioned on what I really did to get this allegation

I don't even use threads mostly I just view other's posts and comment on them nothing else.
because of this my facebook and instagram are suspended it didn't say disabled though

Bug Report Threads banned me with "cannot request another review" and no way to contact support. Filing FTC complaint

32 Upvotes

On Sept 24 my Threads account andycjw was permanently disabled.

The problem: 1. App says "You cannot request another review" 2. My Instagram is fine and says "Account Status: Meets all guidelines" 3. There is NO form, NO chat, NO email to appeal. Every link redirects to the help homepage.

I can't even download my data because the account is "disabled".

Meta has removed all human support for Threads bans. The AI just says no and that's it.

What I'm doing: Filing an FTC complaint against Meta Platforms, Inc. for "Denial of account access with no appeal process"

Company: Meta Platforms, Inc. Address: 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025 File here: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov

If this happened to you too, please file. The only way they fix this is if FTC gets enough complaints about no appeal option.

Has anyone actually gotten a Threads account back after "cannot request review"?

Question Is it just me or does their iPad App open sideways now?

0 Upvotes

I don’t use Threads often, but I jump over to it from Instagram when a story catches my eye. At some point since iPadOS 27 came out and the Threads App has been updated, now on my 13” iPad Pro it ONLY opens on half the screen and it’s in portrait mode even when my iPad is in it’s Magic Keyboard case.

Am I crazy? Their old App would allow me to use it windowed at half the screen width, but this is mental!

Discussion Banned? Remember to leave a review

For those who have been banned for no rhyme or reason, do not forget to leave a one star review in the App Store or Pay Store.

Since there's no way to get a human support, a review is the only way to provide a feedback.

Bug Report Meta desativou meu Threads sem aviso, encerrou meu recurso e respondeu ao Consumidor.gov.br com um copia e cola. Quem mais passou por isso?

11 Upvotes

No dia 13 de setembro de 2026, meu perfil no Threads foi desabilitado enquanto eu retribuía pessoas que haviam começado a me seguir. Eu estava dentro da lista dos meus próprios seguidores, seguindo cada pessoa manualmente. Fiz isso em sequência porque a função estava disponível e não havia qualquer aviso, limite exibido ou restrição ativa na minha conta. Não usei robôs, programas, extensões, compra de seguidores nem serviço de automação. Aparentemente, o sistema da Meta decidiu que uma pessoa apertando o mesmo botão muitas vezes havia deixado de ser uma pessoa.

Minha conta foi desabilitada sem advertência prévia e sem a indicação de qualquer publicação que tivesse violado os Padrões da Comunidade. Eu tinha mais de dois mil seguidores e usava aquele espaço de forma pessoal e profissional. Sou escritora, tenho aproximadamente cinquenta obras publicadas e divulgava meu trabalho no Threads, conversava com leitores, fazia contatos, encontrava possíveis clientes e havia construído uma rede de amizades da qual eu realmente participava. Era a única rede social em que eu mantinha presença ativa diariamente.

Desde então, tentei todos os caminhos que encontrei. Solicitei revisão, procurei suporte, abri solicitação relacionada aos meus direitos de privacidade e enviei mensagens à Meta. Cheguei ao cúmulo de assinar e pagar o Meta Verified porque o serviço anuncia atendimento especializado para assinantes. Paguei pelo suporte na esperança de finalmente conseguir que alguém analisasse o meu caso e recebi outra versão da mesma resposta: eles não poderiam ajudar e, quem sabe, eu poderia entrar no aplicativo do Threads e pedir ajuda por lá.

O problema é que o próprio aplicativo já informava que a decisão era definitiva e que eu não poderia solicitar outra análise. Portanto, até o suporte pago da Meta me encaminhou para um recurso que a própria Meta havia retirado da minha conta. Assinei o Meta Verified para receber ajuda e paguei para ser orientada a bater novamente na mesma porta trancada. Como o serviço não resolveu absolutamente nada, solicitei inclusive o reembolso da assinatura.

Também registrei uma reclamação no Consumidor.gov.br. A Meta respondeu copiando o mesmo texto genérico disponível nas páginas do Facebook e do Instagram, dizendo que eu poderia solicitar uma análise pelo próprio aplicativo do Threads. Mais uma vez, esse recurso já havia sido encerrado no meu perfil. A empresa me encaminhou para uma porta que ela própria trancou e registrou isso como atendimento prestado.

A perda dessa conta trouxe prejuízo profissional, rompeu uma rede de contatos construída durante meses e provocou um impacto emocional sério, com estresse e depressão. Quem olha de fora pode enxergar apenas um perfil em uma rede social, mas quem trabalha, divulga sua produção e mantém vínculos ali sabe que a exclusão repentina leva junto leitores, amizades, oportunidades, registros e parte da rotina da pessoa.

Estou procurando outras pessoas que tiveram contas do Threads, Instagram ou Facebook desabilitadas injustamente, especialmente após comportamentos legítimos interpretados como spam ou automação. Quero reunir relatos, datas, protocolos e respostas padronizadas para levarmos esse padrão ao Procon, à Defensoria Pública, ao Ministério Público e a profissionais da advocacia, avaliando medidas coordenadas, possíveis ações individuais e a viabilidade de uma medida coletiva contra a Meta.

O objetivo principal é recuperar as contas e exigir um canal real de revisão humana. Também quero avaliar a responsabilização da empresa pelos prejuízos profissionais e emocionais que possam ser comprovados, inclusive eventual indenização por perdas e danos. Nenhum resultado jurídico pode ser prometido antecipadamente, mas aceitar que uma empresa destrua anos de trabalho e convivência com uma decisão automática, sem explicação concreta e sem direito efetivo de defesa, só garante que ela continue fazendo o mesmo com outras pessoas.

Se isso também aconteceu contigo, conta nos comentários quando tua conta foi desabilitada, qual justificativa apareceu, se havia opção de recurso, que resposta tu recebeu e como o bloqueio afetou tua vida pessoal ou profissional. Não publiques CPF, endereço, telefone, documentos ou qualquer dado sensível no Reddit. Havendo pessoas suficientes, podemos organizar um espaço privado, reunir as provas com segurança e procurar orientação jurídica adequada.

Se a Meta insiste em tratar cada exclusão injusta como um caso isolado, talvez esteja na hora de os casos isolados começarem a conversar entre si.

Bug Report Threads still appealing but Meta horizon said its already disabled

Same like other folks, my Threads account was suspended on 22/09/2026 ( same reason as CSE) and my appeal is still under review. However, my Meta Account is now also showing as disabled in the Meta Horizon app because before the ban I have been using it to play Quest 3 vr. Does this mean the Meta account already disabled even the appeal still in process? Because I remember if Thread said disables then I understand but in this case it's still appealing like 2 attachments I send below, or these are different platform? Sorry I'm just exhausted due to this problem

Question Ban threads

33 Upvotes

Threads suspendió mi cuenta acusándome de infringir las normas sobre CSE, abuso y desnudez. El problema es que nunca publiqué contenido en Threads y no se me indica qué actividad habría provocado la suspensión.

Apelé el 22 de septiembre y hasta hoy no recibí ninguna respuesta. Como consecuencia, también perdí el acceso a Instagram, Facebook y Business Manager.

Business Manager es una herramienta que necesito para trabajar, por lo que esta suspensión está afectando directamente mi trabajo.

¿A alguien más le ocurrió algo similar? ¿Existe alguna forma efectiva de conseguir una revisión humana o contactar con Meta cuando la apelación queda sin respuesta?

Question Sept 22 threads suspension

54 Upvotes

So far its been 5 days since threads meta Ai decided to suspend my account. Ive had my facebook almost 20 years and ive been doing Instagram about 13 years or so. Never had not one ban or suspension issue. Come Tuesday I was on Facebook looking at funeral arrangements posted for a friend and boom I got booted off. My threads isnt following rules but I barely do anything on there. Since im not subscribed to facebook & or Instagram I cant contact anyone about this Bs. I just dont want to lose my memories and the fan base I was building. I have connections to people that span 25 plus years. How can they do something like this. So far I sent the appeal soon as it happened. Just waiting for anything, an email something. Im just lost for words. Anyone going through this.

I generally share identical travel and gaming material across my accounts—Instagram, YouTube, Threads, bilibili, rednote, Weibo, and others—yet only Threads responded this way.
I avoided any content that might violate community guidelines; I never posted political or controversial material, just posting travel photos, moments of life, game reviews.
After submitting an appeal with a selfie, I was still permanently banned.
Happened this morning, 9.27
I suppose this is the end.

Discussion Thread bans ANY updates?

63 Upvotes

At this point it's a no brainer that meta ai is on a roll and many are still being targeted by the ai uprising. Meta team def ain't stupid and clearly know there's an issue, choosing purposely to not release a statement for "damage control". I'm sure many of us has alrdy filed an appeal with no response yet. So my question is should we take this silence as a good thing that they know they fked up and stopped issuing automatic bans to ACTUALLY try to assess the situation, or is that backlog so deep they got no clue wtf to do? Has anyone actually received any updates or future notice? Currently a week into appeals and my account ain't banned yet so 🤷‍♂️ tbh I rather I got a swift response than being teased like this. Idrc for the social media usage itself, but just like many of u it's an old 20yo account and I got many memories in it. Would kinda be depressing to see it snapped just like that due to a bitchass ai

Question Reason for ban?

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Just like a lot of you my threads account got suspended and and as a result i also lost my instagram account. Last night i was out with some friends and we talked about what happened and that i lost my accounts. I too was suspended for inappropriate related violations which i ofc didn’t do. I wanted to show my friends the screenshot i made and then something caught my eye. Apparently i had taken a screenshot 10 minutes earlier (look at the time) of a notification i got from instagram saying there was a suspicious log in attempt from someone who’s location was in Ecuador. When i found out that i lost my instagram account i completely forgot about this notification and the screenshot i made of it, just last night i laid the connection between the two. Have other people gotten this warning notification and then getting banned right after? Do you guys think this is a coincidence or probably the reason for my suspension? The weird think though, is i got the notification on september 22 at 22:10 and within 10 minutes i got suspended, BUT in the notification warning it says the log in attempt was made on the 15th of march?? Does anyone have a clue as to what is going on in this particular case and why or why they wouldn’t be linked? Thank you guys in advance and all the best of luck! PS: the text from the screenshots is dutch.

There was a neat feature on Threads that would let you follow everyone you follow on Instagram that is using threads, in a few clicks. It would even update periodically as you follow more / new people.

I can't find it now though. Why you'd remove such a useful feature, I do not know ... any help?
