what's going on with Instagram?

I have - or I had - an Instagram account. I never post on it. I didn't follow anyone else's account. I used it for looking at hashtags. Really controversial stuff like #knittersofinstagram or #upcycling. Haven't been on for a while. Just tried to go to the website and had the following message:

Your account has been permanently disabled because it didn't follow our Community Guidelines. This decision can't be reversed either because we've already reviewed it or because 30 days have passed since your account was disabled. Learn more about why we disable accounts in our Community Guidelines.

Thoroughly confused.

They might have thought it was a bot account? Following no one and posting nothing and not logging in for years - possibly flagged as a bot imo.

It's probably been 2 or 3 months since I was on. Not years. And I've an active FB account in the same name/email.

Probably someone got into it and used it for spam purposes.
