+On Sunday, March 26th, we were made aware that Instagram and Facebook started blocking links to pronouns.page and requiring users to remove them from their profile.
+
+We're saddened and annoyed by the situation. Our portal definitely has nothing to do with spam, terrorism, crime, hate groups, sexual services, firearms, or drugs.
+Such accusations are obviously absurd. Our [Terms of Service](/terms) are clear and we work tirelessly to moderate content that doesn't follow the rules.
+
+But at this point we don’t have any reasons to believe that this ban was intentional or queerphobic – 
+it’s likely that their bot stumbled upon a card with dubious content that hadn’t yet gotten banned by our moderators,
+and then automatically marked the whole domain as suspicious.
+Especially since our other domains (zaimki.pl, pronoms.fr and pronombr.es) seem to be unaffected.
+
+We’ve already filed a complaint through [Meta’s Sharing Debugger](https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/?q=https%3A%2F%2Fpronouns.page),
+now we just have to wait for a human to review and fix the bot's mistake.
