@TergusVir Oh my goodness😨
We haven't imposed any restrictions on this.
That's unfortunate.

@Scooter45547259 No...you haven't. AI has gone rogue. The last couple of weeks I have had issues everywhere since at 73 I refuse to confirm my age on some app I know nothing about. Even Grok confirms this restriction.

@der_skalde I live in a country way down the bottom the planet with yet another legal system. The US based tech companies will do whatever they want as there are, as yet, no legal consequences & won't be under this administration.
English
@TergusVir Isn't that crazy? I also use AI, but in a normal way, not for surveillance. Now, on top of that, as an EU citizen, I belong to a different legal system. Are the Americans allowed to do that? These are precisely the points of contention.

It's getting crazier and crazier: I just found out that YouTube blocked an old video of mine in elegant fashion, the kind you all know, because of sexual content and nudity. I'm speechless. What's going on? I had to complete a training course and of course I filed a complaint. But I guess nothing will happen. We'll see what happens next. My YouTube views have already dropped by 2,000-3,000 to 100 per video. They probably want to get rid of users.

@der_skalde AI has gone rogue.....I have dumped Instagram, Pinterest & Paypal. My FB & Messenger no longer work but is still pulls up a dormant profile that I asked be removed. Both will be gone Sunday.
English
Even Grok himself confirmed to me that my account has been restricted. He also confirmed that there's currently a large wave of such restrictions affecting many accounts with AI content. All of them are exhibiting the same symptoms of being unreachable. It's affected others with significantly more followers. This is insane, what's happening here.

@der_skalde The algorithm as I see it has gone rogue. My spat with Outlook, an account decades old, ended up being hand balled to India. $250AUD to fix please Sir. Good scam. YT is also shadow banning
English
I've decided not to post anything until Sunday. Maybe a break will help the algorithm get back on track.
English
@der_skalde Something is up....some images are now not visible & age restricted. These idiots demand I now verify my age to view them on my profile. It is there & has been since I started on this X. Seeing this restriction on art pages elsewhere.
English
I'm getting really angry about what's happening here. My views are plummeting, and I'm hardly getting any likes. With 5500 followers, I'd expect at least 3000 views per picture. But right now, it's just garbage. I'm seriously losing interest in posting anything here anymore. It just seems like my account is shadowbanned.
English
@der_skalde Ok..interesting.....this week I have had a raging argument about security over reach with Outlook as a result of them flagging & locking down my email my account for what they describe as quote unquote,"unusual activity". Account is now lost after they demanded cash to fix it.
English
@der_skalde Agreed. You are doing a great job with the current format. Those that follow you will find a way to access your art. Pinterest, to their credit, left the door open in the event I decide to return. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Cheers.
English
@TergusVir Unfortunately, these problems are the same on all platforms. I'm therefore considering relaunching my website. But that would unfortunately incur additional costs for me.
English
I'm just thinking that, given the strange follower counts, I might recommend Pinterest as an alternative platform. There are already thousands of pictures there, including older ones. I upload material there regularly, but I'm not always up-to-date. So take a look.
