Instagram censors rigorously sourced Just Facts video about N95 masks: Just Facts, an organization dedicated to producing rigorously researched and documented information about various public policy issues, was censored by Instagram. The group posted a video that it had created which was titled "What They Aren't Telling You About N95 Masks," which provided information about the subject based on scientific studies. After posting the video to its Instagram page, the group received a message from Instagram that it shared with CensorTrack. The Instagram message noted that the post was "removed for harmful false information." While Just Facts' video was rigorously sourced and documented, Instagram's claim that it contained "harmful false information" was not. In fact, no evidence was provided for the claim. Just Facts has appealed the removal, and is awaiting an answer from Instagram, which is owned by Meta, formerly Facebook.
