Facebook is happy to host peoples entire online social life to profit from (and experiment on, sell dangerous/discriminatory ads to etc) but not take the least care to ensure they keep access to all their photos, contacts etc. Banning people for one infraction after nearly 2 decades is entirely unreasonable given the amount of data the service holes.

The problem in this equation is him being banned on Instagram.

Banning on Facebook is justifiable from every angle but not exactly on Instagram.

There is no universal Meta Account (like google account, apple ID). There are two different accounts for two different services.

Illegal/Unethical banning of OP's account on Instagram.

They banned both, personal and gaming account, and I can’t make another one, got my friend to make one for me, logged in on my phone and insta banned

So someone can log in from a country that ISNT Canada and Facebook doesn’t see it as a red flag?

I was the one wronged, 16 years on the platform, changed my passwords ever 3-6 months and this so the first time my account got hacked.
