Instagram finds that AI Mr beast scams do not go against community guidelines.

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.

Instagram is owned by Meta... Facebook.

Facebook had no problem helping pedophiles distribute child pornography on their platform, terrorists and Nazis from organizing events on their platform, or allowing deceptive political ads that swayed the votes of democratic nations.

Why would they give any fuck about fake Mr beast ads?

On Twitter I’ve reported:

  • Pictures of dead babies/toddlers
  • Pictures of murdered people
  • Death threats towards public figures
  • Illegal videos of terrorist acts
  • Ads for illegal weapons (tasers)
  • So so much crypto spam

Things found by Twitter to go against their community standards? 0

He fired more than 80% of the original workers.
There is nobody to check the reports.

Same with YouTube ads. Lots of scam's and reporting it always ends in my report getting denied..

If you stop using Instagram, then you won't have to worry about it.

That doesn’t mean the issue disappears.

Reviewed by an AI. Nice.

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.

Actual child porn? How do you mean?

Porn with actual children.

Can you be more specific? Like AI generated 17 year olds, or real photos of some 3 year old kid in someone's dungeon? There's a big difference.

But if you make a clear joke in a joke group, you get flagged and can't get it reviewed.

Did you report the CP to the police?

Daxtron2 ,

No usually I report it to NCMEC who has better resources to deal with it. Cops very rarely care or are able to do anything.

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.

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
