” The account [Instagram] Eric Zemmour was deleted by mistake, we are sorry for the inconvenience caused, ”a spokesperson for Facebook, the parent company of the social network Instagram, told AFP on Friday.
Thursday, the polemicist was indignant at the deletion of his account, speaking of “censorship”. “The Gafam [Google, Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft] have engaged in a fierce struggle against the peoples who do not want to die. They can censor me, but they cannot silence a whole people, ”he tweeted.
Facebook claimed that Eric Zemmour – whose Instagram account has since been reactivated – had not broken any network rules and said he took steps to prevent such an incident from happening again.
