I signed into Instagram because one of the news sites referenced it. A few months later I signed on again to set up a business account, only to be informed I was "violating the Community Guidelines" and asking to send a text (so I gave a number intended for the business - only for the text to ask me to bend over, kiss the nether parts, and, oh yes, write a number on a piece of paper and take a selfie for them. So far, Zinc is asking for photos. So I wrote Meta's chief legal officer to ask for a justification for mining for personal identification information under fraudulent circumstances. No answer yet so it's time to go see if I can get triple damages for not responding to the demand letter. Ho Hum, we hardly knew ye.
