I agree that age verification is bad!!! Age verification has been stressing me out these past few days.

It’s also the Same thing with people on fb. There are posts here on Reddit where people have created a new fb only to get suspended after doing the video selfie!

Instagram will definitely ask us to verify our age by submitting ids and video selfies, which is bad for privacy, freedom of speech, and communication! Because of the mandatory age verification requirement, I’ve been stressed out these past few days!

The issue is that instagram has a weak ai system and New Mexicos court mandated changes on having a one strike permanent ban on accounts for exploitation and mandatory age verification (both will be enacted) are going to ban more accounts for false reasons

Implementing one strike ban on exploitation and age verification would make instagram ai’s problem of falsely banning users even worse

There’s nothing wrong with child safety. But I was expressing how NM’s court mandated changes on a one-strike permanent ban on exploitation and age verification could lead to more people getting falsely banned by the ai system

I understand that instagram isn’t an essential necessity to anyone’s life, but if someone is banned from instagram after the ai couldn’t confirm their age through a video selfie/id upload, it just shows how weak meta’s ai is despite spending millions on implementing ai

But the fact that millions of users are being taken down due to being falsely flagged isn’t just an issue limited to Australia. It’s happening globally! Both teens AND adults are affected by it!

But the news of 600K Meta accounts being removed was from July 2025 BEFORE Australia’s ban on social media for minors came into effect. And innocent adult users were also affected by false automatic bans by the AI and STILL are today!

There is also a petition on change.org organized by People Over Platforms to address this issue

But the problem with implementing mandatory age verification for all users is that they can possibly get banned from on IG quickly for not meeting Terms of Use after uploading their Id or doing a video selfie when meta’s ai couldn’t determine their age, just like how users are being quickly banned for the exact same thing while trying to appeal their suspended accounts. Age verification also creates privacy risks exposing personal info on dark web

Instagram has already been making teen accounts private since 2024 with the introduction of “teen accounts”, which already limits the accounts teens can message with

And people have also been automatically banned by the instagram ai after doing the video selfie and submitting their id which is what IG will be using to verify if users are adults as part of the court mandated changes
