Meta can’t hand over what they don’t have.

Get. Off. Instagram.

Earlier this summer I received a warning from Meta Quest that my 19 year old account was being used by a child.* They wanted me to confirm my age by sending them a photo of a government ID or credit card, which I was reluctant to do. Hence they suspended my Facebook, Instagram and Messenger account, I let the reactivation period lapse.

I'm actually glad it happened, this was the push I needed to de-Facebook my life. Luckily I had already downloaded and deleted most of my data from the services.

* I still don't know what caused this, it could be that my kids' use of a Quest headset on my account was analyzed in some way.

The case began when eight women discovered their most private health information – details about menstruation, ovulation, pregnancy attempts and sexual health – had been “surreptitiously transmitting” to Meta through a hidden tracking tool embedded in the app.
