> extra impersonation protection against accounts claiming to be you
My tech-ignorant father-in-law who has 3 friends on Instagram had a fake profile created that was identical to his and matched his username except 1 minor character difference. I reported it to Facebook and the reply was "We get so many requests, we haven't had time to review yours, so we are closing it out. Sorry."
Funny that now you can pay $12/mo for them to... maybe not ignore reports of impersonators?
- wongarsu 4y ago"we were overwhelmed with requests, so now we charge money to process them" sounds reasonable. It also aligns incentives: Facebook now has a reason to have enough support people to respond to requests from paying customers, otherwise they might stop paying.
