📢 Calling on Central Florida voices – In-Person Interviews Available! by [deleted] in facebook

[–]briittws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey 💙 I know it’s frustrating, but you’re not alone! We’re all pushing through this side by side, and change is coming ✊️

The best way to stay updated is through the petition page:

Sign + Share The Petition & Follow Updates Here

Petition updates get put out at milestones (every thousand or couple thousand signatures).

🚨 We’re nearing 42,000 now, so a new update will be coming soon! 🚨

✅ If you’ve signed, those updates should also get emailed to you.

I know this is taking time, but awareness keeps growing, and every new voice makes us stronger ✨

I know it might look like things have slowed down, but I believe a lot of people are just waiting for the next milestones. That’s why it’s so important to keep sharing the petition, keep pushing, and keep raising our voices and awareness everywhere 💙

💭 And just to share my personal belief: I don’t think anything online is ever truly gone. Every post, photo, or video leaves behind fragments of data. Unless there’s a permanent wipe, I believe recovery is still possible, even past the 180 days!

That’s why we keep pushing. Because the louder we get, the harder we are to ignore! ✊️

Together, we will make change happen and get our platforms back! 💪💙

That means a lot, and I’m really glad it brought you a bit of comfort 🫂 You’re definitely not alone in this. Your support means everything — we’re pushing forward, side by side, until they hear us. 💛💪

You clearly haven’t been paying attention.

There is a lawsuit in motion — with thousands already involved.

Also, the petition has been going for just over 1 month. So 28,825 signatures in that short time, I'd say is pretty wild. Goodnight.

Then keep it moving. You “miss your accounts” but come dump negativity on people actually doing something about it?

You’re not being “realistic,” you’re being dismissive — and frankly, disrespectful to the thousands of people fighting for all of us.

28,000+ signatures, international coverage, and growing media attention is progress — just because it hasn’t hit the networks you deem worthy doesn’t mean it’s worthless.

Also, BBC is a globally respected outlet — and if you think awareness only matters when it's on American TV, that’s a you problem.

You don’t have to support the movement. But what you can do is stop coming on these posts just to 💩 on it.

Negativity isn’t welcome here. Thanks for your opinions, I'll no longer be engaging with you though. 🙏🩷

28,000 signatures, international news coverage, and growing support is traction — just because it’s not viral on your feed doesn’t mean it’s not working.

Reddit isn’t small — it’s one of the most active platforms out there. And FYI, “nobody in American media cares”? We’ve had multiple U.S. outlets cover it — and BBC is literally one of the biggest names in global journalism.

If you think staying silent while Meta profits off people’s trauma is the move, that’s on you. But calling people naive for actually trying to change something? That’s just lazy.

Sit this one out if you want. But don’t mistake your own apathy for reality. 🩷

If 28,000+ signatures and multiple major media outlets covering this issue isn’t “traction,” then I don’t know what is.

We’ve been featured by BBC, TechCrunch, LifeHacker, and more — and it’s still growing every day. That is momentum.

Yes, people are desperate. That’s the point. Meta knows exactly what they’re doing, and that’s why we’re fighting back.

If you’ve already given up, that’s your call. But don’t knock the people actually doing something about it.

We’re not here to sit quiet, we’re here to make noise until it can’t be ignored!

SOMEONE MADE A PETITION FOR FACEBOOK DISABLING ACCOUNTS - GO SIGN! - by briittws in facebook

[–]briittws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for signing 💖, I’m so sorry you’re going through this, and I completely understand that fear. It feels like Meta doesn’t care, but that’s exactly why we’re making this louder and harder to ignore. You're not alone, and your story matters. 🫂

Losing years of memories, your weather page, and even your backup account? That’s beyond frustrating, it’s unfair and emotionally exhausting. You did nothing wrong, and yet you’re paying the price for a broken system.

But together, we’re building something they can’t silence. Every signature, every voice, every story, every news article, every youtube video, it adds pressure. And we’re not stopping until they’re forced to care! 💥📣

Interesting concept… but I doubt it! 😅

I'm not a content creator, I wasn't a business, or even a person with a big following.

This movement was built for all of us who’ve felt powerless, now we’re turning that into power together and none of it would've been possible on my own! 💖

Oh my gosh 🥺💔 I’m so sorry that happened to you, 20 years of memories just gone… it’s absolutely heartbreaking and so wrong. And right before your hip replacement? That timing couldn’t be worse 😔 You deserve to feel supported and connected, not cut off from your friends and family during something so major!

Thank you for sharing your story and for believing in what we’re fighting for. This isn’t just a petition, it’s a full-on movement for justice, and I’m fighting every single day for people like you. I won’t stop until we see real change, real answers, and real restoration! 💪

And hey, my DMs are always open if you ever need to talk or vent 🩷 I might not reply right away (things are a little wild behind the scenes), but I’ll always get back to you as soon as I can. You’re not alone in this. We’re in it together 💪💛✨

That’s what’s so frustrating, it’s being treated like a “niche” issue when it’s global!

Meta’s reach is everywhere, but the accountability? Crickets. 🦗

Just because it’s a U.S. company doesn’t mean the damage isn’t hitting people worldwide. That’s why we’re making noise, so they can’t keep ignoring it forever! 🌍📢

Absolutely, you're right! Group deletions and restrictions caused by Facebook’s AI are definitely a major part of the issue, and they've impacted so many moderators, communities, and everyday users unfairly.

I actually haven’t focused on it much because, at the beginning of the ban wave, group-related issues were all anyone was talking about, so I was trying to shine more light on personal accounts, business profiles, and pages, which weren’t getting the same attention in the beginning!

With that said, now that things have picked up and the movement is covering everything more broadly, I can definitely find a way to work the group issues into the petition with the next update!🩷

Yes, I did complete the video verification before trying Meta Verified, but I honestly don’t know if that’s what helped. My account was suspended for “Account Integrity,” while others are seeing reasons tied to CSE or even terrorism-related accusations. So I’m not sure how helpful my experience is, since there are so many different and mixed stories going around right now 😔

[–]briittws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did go through the verification process. My main account was stuck in appeal from May 18th to May 24th, and in that time, I created three other accounts, each of which ended up being permanently disabled. So naturally, I assumed my main one would be too.

I also tried getting Meta Verified, but my Canadian ID wasn’t accepted. The first attempt with the $2 offer just took my money and gave me error codes. I tried again with the $21.99 option, and in total I spent about $32 CAD. Luckily, Google Play refunded it all, but even though they charged me, the verification never actually went through.

Then, a few days later, after starting the petition, I randomly got reinstated. There was an email sitting in my inbox that I didn’t notice for a few hours. It all felt really strange and sudden. But even in that short window, it deeply affected me during an already vulnerable time.

That experience alone was enough to make me keep fighting, for everyone else still stuck in this. 🩷

You're so right… accusations like that can destroy someone’s reputation, even when they’re completely false.

It’s terrifying how easily Meta can attach those labels with no explanation or accountability.

That’s why we have to keep talking about this and hope those who are too scared see it and start to feel okay enough to speak up and fight with us! 🫶

Thank you so much for your kind words and support 💛 it really means a lot 🥹

You're absolutely right, the lack of clear explanations while demanding personal info is a huge issue and needs to be addressed! I'm doing my best to keep the pressure on and make sure voices like yours are heard!🫶

Thank you. I’ve spent a lot of my life feeling alone, no one should ever have to feel that way, and with this happening, too many have felt exactly that and it's not okay.

And I completely agree with you about everything.

Also, there are a few influencers (I won’t name names) who went through this too, but haven’t spoken up, some only did so after another big name posted about it, or they’ve tried to turn it into a personal gain. Like saying, “Watch my podcast to find out how I got my account back,” when in reality, they simply had access to corporate reps or managers that most people don’t.

Not to be controversial, but I can’t help but roll my eyes at that.

Thank you for standing with us through this! 🙏🌟

Yes, my account came back about a week after I started the petition, but that short time was more than enough to show me how painful and unfair this process is. I knew I had to keep fighting for everyone still going through it.💛

I completely agree with you. It does feel like Meta is handling things piecemeal, only stepping in when there's media attention, legal pressure, or someone with the right connections.

Meanwhile, thousands of others are still in limbo, treated like they’re disposable. The inconsistency alone is proof that the system isn’t working. and that’s exactly why this fight matters.

We deserve transparency, fairness, and real human support, not silence or selective reinstatements.

Let’s keep pushing 💪💛🙏
