These scammers using Mr Beasts popularity, generosity, and (mostly) deep fake AI to scam people into downloading malware, somehow do not go against Instagrams community guidelines.
After trying to submit a request to review these denied claims, it appears I have been shadow banned in some way or another as only an error message pops up.
Instagram is allowing these to run on their platform. Intentional or not, this is ridiculous and Instagram should be held accountable for allowing malicious websites to advertise their scam on their platform.
For a platform of this scale, this is completely unacceptable. They are blatant and I have no idea how Instagrams report bots/staff are missing these.
So what they are saying is they are willing to take liability and thus be open to being sued over this as they know of the scams but say they do not break community guidelines
Got it
Sounds like a good time to make Mr Beast aware of these, he has a lot of disposable income to burn on a lawsuit or three.

I’ve reported Nazis, violent threats, and literal child pornography on Instagram that then told me it didn’t go against their guidelines.
I read between the lines: this is the content they support, so it’s not a platform for me.
Same… “this huge anal horse dildo does not break our marketplace guidelines”
If you stop using Instagram, then you won’t have to worry about it.
That doesn’t mean the issue disappears.
You still using Instagram! In 2024
I guess I am the only who thought that everyone has moved on from Instagram.
I read these comments about people complaining about AI ads and I suddenly realize how little I’ve had to deal with that shit. All my browsers have 2-3 adblockers since pretty much ad blockers existed, I stopped watching TV like 20 years ago and went full ahoy matey for a while, then paid Netflix and Amazon Prime and with ads coming there I’m back to mateeeeyyy, and though here and there from time to time I do see some small ads on some sites (mostly on mobile mostly though seeing an image on Reddit (now Lemmy) in the rif (now connect) app
I stayed away from places like instagram like the disease that it is, I pretty much don’t Facebook, and I barely ever had to deal with commercials for like the past 20 years of my life.
Most commercials I’d see would be billboards EVERYWHERE in the real world when I lived in Mexico (seriously, Mexican government, please do something about this, it’s beyond bad there) but now here in Canada, it’s mostly pretty quiet and nice.
I guess I’m kind of blessed in comparison with everyone else in here
How the fuck did you make it all the way up to Canada without seeing the hellscape of billboards that is, these United States?
