Instagram users face ransom demands over fake copyright claims (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Instagram creators say they have lost thousands of pounds after their accounts were suspended or taken down due to fake copyright claims. Extorters have filed bogus claims to the Meta-owned social media platform, then asked for ransoms to withdraw them - knowing repeated claims can lead to account bans. One Instagram user, who has 1.5 million followers, told the BBC he paid a scammer $50 (£37) to get his account back, claiming Meta's appeal process would take weeks, which had previously cost him

All of social media should be designed to be safe for children, the UN human rights chief has said after Meta settled a massive court case in the US.
