Interesting. I had a very similar experience.

I had no instagram account, so I set one up to try out threads within the first week of launch. On July 7 I received an email from instagram stating that my account had been suspended for being in violation of community guidelines.

Where my experience differed is that I was able to review and appeal this without entering a mobile number into my instagram account. Very shortly after I submitted a request for review via email, my account was reinstated.

I use a slightly modified version of this UserScript in TamperMonkey: https://github.com/ZedNaught/blank-promoted-tweets

The change I've made is that I set the display of the promoted tweets to none, rather than setting their opacity to 0: article.setAttribute('style', 'display: none');

I see, so as an example, you eat your final meal at 6:00 Sunday night. Nothing Monday. Breakfast at 6:00 on Tuesday. 6:00p Sunday to 6:00a Tuesday is 36 hours.

> If you need to restrict access to a field (e.g. social security number) such that only certain users can see it, you need the authorization check twice, once when writing the JSON and again when building the HTML.

I think the article may have some points worth considering, but in what world should security code for restricting access to display a social security number ever be in the browser? The browser should never get data that it would be dangerous for the user to have access to.

I'm not condoning what Xiaomi does, but he absolutely should question whether he's spending his time in a way that is ultimately satisfying. Maybe his regret indicates that he should have prioritized his family higher.

Changing the font weight to 300 or 500 seems much superior to me. I like the font, but the 400 weight just has too many obvious jaggies.

This is pretty great marketing for the first edition.
