Meta Admits Instagram Trump Unfollow Glitch; Users Revolt
Meta addressed user complaints regarding the automatic following of Donald Trump’s official presidential accounts on Facebook and Instagram. The company acknowledged technical difficulties preventing some users from unfollowing the accounts, emphasizing that users were not initially forced to follow them.
