Meta said it fixed an Instagram bug after some Instagram users, who posted pro-Palestine content, accused the social media platform of suppressing their content.
Meta designates Hamas as a “dangerous organisation” and bans content praising the group.
Mondoweiss, a news website that covers Palestinian human rights, said on social media platform X on October 10 that Instagram had twice suspended the profile of its video correspondent. Other Instagram users reported their posts and stories about Palestine were not receiving views.
“This bug affected accounts equally around the globe – not only people trying to post about what’s happening in Israel and Gaza – and it had nothing to do with the subject matter of the content,” Meta said.
