If you have an IG account, might be fun to check whether you're suddenly following @potus, @vp, or @flotus - three revamped "new" accounts that IG has forced millions of accounts to follow today, and unfollowing/blocking doesn't work. It's been reported widely, and Meta still hasn't admitted an error or reversed it.

Hope you're all having fun at the circus, everyone 🎪

I wasn’t following those accounts before 1/20 and I’m still not following them after. It’s almost like they’re connected and it’s not a conspiracy.

I found out what happened: the accounts changed hands - so POTUS is now run by DJT. If you were following POTUS before you’re still following, it’s just posting MAGA propaganda now vs Biden’s stuff, which was erased, and so on.

Many people who weren't following any of these accounts are reporting they were suddenly following one or more of them yesterday, without actively choosing to do so.

I’m sure they’ll miss you greatly.

Obv if you followed POTUS they transitioned the handle to new president but issue remains. So people hit unfollow and then it auto followed again..that’s the problematic part.

The old accounts were "archived" but still available, these are fresh accounts. *Many of us were following none of these accounts before, despite Meta's response.

Zuck going out of his way to court Trump the other day, axing fact checking because of "free speech", and Trump's back-rooms meddling with TikTok, make this a pretty easy connection to draw. Could easily be an error as much as intentional manipulation from where I'm standing.

There are enough people who never followed these accounts before for it to be suspicious.

I deleted all Meta accounts.

I wasn’t following any of them and none of them were auto followed

Wasn’t negating your claim, just stating my experience. It’s okay to not be defensive.

My personal account was following them for me and it took me a few tries to clear them out. They were in my followers and following me.
