Attack of the Bots! Please Help

1. No explanation is given when the content is taken down other than a general violation of guidelines statement with no links to appeal.
2. Content is removed in a very short period of time.
3. Thousands of bots (some new some old) were found on their follower list.
4. Recently their facebook locked them out on 3 different occasions within a week's span for "suspicious activity"

1. what do you guys think is happening to them?
2. Are there automated report bots that can target content?
3. What options do they have to protect themselves against these attacks (going private isn't a long term solution as they need swipe up link capability)
4. Can a firewall be made around an Instagram account?

Just my opinion and this is what I would do.

First, tell your friend to start promoting and buying IG ads.

Second, after some time, he should contact Instagram to ask them how to sort this issue.

By being a paid user (the buying ads steps), IG (or any other business) will look into your friends issue more seriously.

I think it's a glitch

Unless there's a team of reporters going rogue

I had a post deleted for bullying & I see my competitors getting constant EV or PV

I think one of instagram/fb updates against bots, is backfiring against humans

What do you mean by EV and PV?

And this most definitely is not a glitch. At least not on the IG side of things. Not sure about Facebook though.

If it's not a glitch than instagram / Facebook is more weak that I thought.

I thought they had a chance to stop us, but when the truth came to light - they're actually deleting + hurting more humans than bot owners.

100 bots can go down and we don't care.
1 human infliencer goes down & it can ruin someone's potential + motivation. & They lose a user.

It seems we will win this fight & they will give up / cool down after elections

They can't risk Russian interference (or other foreign nation interference)

So they're doing what they can so they can avoid the wrong types of regulation .

It's either that, or a team of volunteer rogue reporters. But my money is on my first opinion
