flag New Zealand small businesses wrongly banned by Meta’s AI can now appeal after government intervention.

flag New Zealand small businesses wrongly suspended from Facebook and Instagram due to automated AI moderation can now appeal through a government-established inbox, small.business@mbie.govt.nz, after Minister Chris Penk intervened. flag Over 30 businesses reported being blocked, sometimes for false child exploitation claims, with many frustrated by lack of human review. flag Penk secured Meta’s promise to review cases manually, acknowledging its AI system has been too broad. flag The program targets businesses with up to 20 full-time employees, with some flexibility, and may expand to individuals if effective. flag Meta has not confirmed the number of affected accounts or publicly responded to the issue.
