Isn’t that a good thing if it’s actually related to AI usage?

It is a bit dumb tho if they are going to ban people using their AI they should just instruct it to not publish to their own products.

I saw a headline that Muse was leaking people's contact info. There was a DEFCON presentation in 2025 on how they (hackers) coerced private/personal data out of a model (openai maybe). That has been patched most likely.

Meta doesn't have a great track record of protecting data.

But their record of failing to protect data is rock-solid!

Meta moderation AI is very aggressive. It is not uncommon for people to get banned for using their own tools like the whatsapp API.

Yeah you get banned at the drop of a hat with Meta, I'm not sure if their impersonal bots that ban you for no reason are worse than reddit where some pathological soap-dodger bans you for personal reasons though.

Tell your muse to talk to their support muse to resolve this

This made me laugh harder than it should have.

AI will actually encourage large scale breach.

By doing so, the data is effectively public now so later can be trained and they can still deny direct use.

Do you have any idea what Muse created that set off the moderation?

Ask muse to appeal with support agent.

Meta is like they can scrape and do everything with other people website, but others aren't allowed to scrape their content.

A few years ago, I had a client who sold personalized spicy stories. That is before AI, there was a simple web order form, and they would write based on whatever their client requested.

We put ads on Google and Google suggested to add stock photos from its library. So created a few ads using those photos. Nothing crazy, just muscular men without shirts.

Next morning we woke up with our Google Ads account being suspended due to repeated violations because we had multiple ads.

The marketing makes it sound like it can do anything. Then you actually use it and discover how little it can reliably do.

As a German speaker, I read this and found it sehr amüsant.
