Romain Berger
Medium: Photography
Censored by: Instagram
Was there a notification of removal and if so what was the reason given?: Threat of closure of my account from instagram explaining that I had broken the rules of instagram (nudity, explicit sexual act etc...)
What date were you censored?: 1/19/2023
Were you given an opportunity to appeal? If so, did you appeal and what was the response?: I tried to make a complaint but instagram refused my request. This has happened many times with several of my creations. Now I'm shadowban by instagram who judge that I crossed the limits of reasonableness.
What have the consequences been for you because of this removal? Please describe in best detail.: As a queer artist it is difficult. When instagram deletes my creation, it means a lot of work disappears in smoke and a lack of visibility. Instagram represents 90% of my sales, when they delete a post, it's less sales for me to grow as an artist
