I tried to sign up for Instagram and got banned within minutes of signing up and couldn’t get signed up. Eventually since I came to ‘need’ it as my social circle have moved on from Twitter I bought an account on the grey market. The main ads I got were for forged EU identification documents. It really shows where Meta spend their money. This is probably an excellent ad for someone in a position where they want to make money by creating and selling Instagram accounts. This is also a very easy genre of ad to spot for a company on the bleeding edge of NLP. The advertisers don’t even use euphemisms, their feed is just pictures of dozens of passports and visas. It’s still up weeks later. I’m obviously used to online platforms being careless about who they run ads for, but official ads brazenly selling identity documents was certainly a new one!
