Instagram has said it is looking into why thousands of users have suddenly had their accounts suspended.
Users have posted on other social media platforms to ask why they have been locked out of their profiles, having received a message saying: “We suspended your account on October 31, 2022.”
“We’re aware that some of you are having issues accessing your Instagram account,” the company said.
“We’re looking into it and apologize for the inconvenience.”
Tens of thousands of people have logged problems, according to the website Down Detector.
The Verge reports that millions of people seem to have been affected, with follower counts dropping on some of the platform’s biggest accounts.
Those affected are told they have 30 days to disagree with their suspension.
