#metabanwave2025

I don’t usually write about website companies since websites are not considered technology but this one is so crazy I decided to do it. It all started on August 27, 2025 After doing a research I’ve discovered a #metabanwave2025 hashtag. Apparently on July 1, 2025 Meta has implemented the AI account inspector which has gone rogue and been going around accusing people of heinous crimes and deleting their accounts left and right and to my surprise I was one of those victims. Luckily just my personal accounts were taken down and the ones associated with this website were spared. Even though accusations towards me was not as heinous as some of the other people that I saw on tiktok and YouTube, it is still very troubling for me. I appreciate the latest AI advancements as much as a next guy but stories I’ve heard are insane and some people might even get arrested because things that they were accused of gets automatically reported to “National Center for Missing and Exploited Children” or NCMEC for short, and as we all know NCMEC then automatically reports it to the local authorities. So I kept digging further into the story and discovered that there is a petition going around on change.org to hold Meta accountable for their actions and to shut down the AI account inspector, and though this part I can’t seem to confirm but I heard there is even a class action lawsuit against Meta and their crazy practices
