Whenever I visit Facebook now, I get the following message or suspension warning (note the link is from someone else’s instagram account posted on reddit and I only link to it because it’s the complete warning at a glance)
https://www.reddit.com/r/Instagram/comments/18bsjib/we_suspect_automated_behaviour_on_your_account/
I have no idea what they’re talking about or why I’m suddenly getting the message. I originally assumed it was related to my VPN but apparently not.
Anybody else suddenly getting this warning or know what might be going on?
VPN?
Most VPNs use a specific subset of IP addresses. Many bad actors utilize VPNs to obfuscate the origin of the malicious activity, which kind of poisons the well, so to speak.
Like what I’m using mulvad VPN, a bunch of sites will flag me as potentially suspicious traffic. This is, no doubt, because mulvad VPN is a legit VPN, so bad actors are using it, because they know they can get away with it.
Ad blocker?
The irony of linking to your Reddit post.
It’s not my Reddit post though - just the result of a google search to see if anyone else was experiencing the same issue for no apparent reason.
