Amouranth accuses another site of \u201cshadow banning\u201d her as Instagram ban continues Twitter\/AmouranthTwitch star Kaitlyn \u2018Amouranth\u2019 Siragusa is accusing another big social media platform of \u201cshadow banning\u201d her as Instagram continues to keep her account locked. Amouranth is one of the biggest content creators on the internet. Whether she\u2019s streaming from her hot tub on Twitch, appearing on podcasts, or buying gas stations, she has a knack for drawing attention to herself. While all those eyes on her have earned her quite a large chunk of change over the years, so much attention can have some drawbacks. As she explained to Ludwig during an appearance on The Yard, Instagram won\u2019t unban her account, despite the fact it was only suspended due to mass-reports by trolls. And as it turns out, Instagram isn\u2019t the only site giving her challenges. Amouranth slams Twitter over \u201cshadow ban\u201d In response to reporter Tyler Erzberger on Twitter claiming it took him \u201c10 minutes\u201d to find her account due to a shadow ban, Amouranth took aim at the platform. \u201cI too, would like to be unshadow banned,\u201d she wrote, tagging Twitter Support. A shadow ban is different from a traditional ban where an account vanishes or is unable to post content for a period of time. When a user is shadow banned, they often don\u2019t realize it because the site won\u2019t outright say they were suspended. I too, would like to be unshadow banned @TwitterSupport @verified https:\/\/t.co\/kQfJm5AJN4 \u2014 Kaitlyn (@wildkait) December 28, 2021 Instead, their posts and their account will be harder to find on a feed, even for those who follow or subscribe to them. This can have a huge impact on post engagements. Twitter didn\u2019t respond to Siragusa\u2019s concerns publicly, but it is possible they have contacted her through DMs to resolve the issue. In any case, it seems as if social media is becoming quite the cruel mistress for the popular entertainer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
