Our Instagram is down. In fact, all of our autism services sites are down. It seems to think we don’t look autistic or something. Also down for our autistic led short film Once More, Like Rain Man, and Bella’s first short film, Glory & Injustice.
The movie is taking a huge hit. From over 1 MILLION views on the trailer to nothing.
Apparently fb is fine although the same company.
It also took out our daughter’s pages on fb and Instagram (Kennedy Areffi - who is also autistic), and she’s completely distraught. That’s her main contact with the world.
(Our other daughter - Bella Zoe Martinez - had her actor page go down, my personal instagram and my husband’s - although those came back up again without warning or reason).
Even when we got a person on the phone (shocker!) they acknowledged the AI that seems to have screwed up the accounts of millions BUT there is no structured way to have a person review or override this. Their suggestion was wait and it might fix itself. Huh???
