A bombing in Gaza killed an influencer's family—Instagram responded by suspending his account
Motaz Azaiza, a photograph on Instagram documenting the war in Palestine, had his account suspended, despite having over 3 million followers.
In a video on Oct. 13, Instagram influencer and photojournalist Motaz Azaiza shared footage of the rubble of an apartment, the site of an Israeli bombardment that killed 15 of his family members.
He turns the camera on himself first, visibly upset, and then shows the scene—the ruin of the building, a bloodstain, a neighbor carrying a child’s body draped with a shroud.
In response, Meta restricted access to his account.
You're viewing a single thread.
How is it that this article doesn't state why his accounts was suspended? What did Meta say the suspension was for?
Because Meta has not given an explanation to him or anyone. Hence why the article says "His Twitter account is still suspended for unclear reasons. "
What does twitter have to do with this?
It is also a social medium.
Run by a completely different, very crazy, person. So again how is it relevant? I know that fact alone makes me kind of doubt the veracity of the overall story.
I'm going to guess that X number of people reported the account in Y hours so it was temporarily banned until some third-world, minimum-wage worker had time to look at it.
