<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Friends - We submitted an appeal to Instagram concerning a clients account ban for alleged TM infringement. We followed the IG appeal route, but quickly received a generic response reciting Instagrams TM
policy ("As a user of Instagram, you have agreed to our Terms of Use.When we receive a proper claim, we promptly remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content. We also terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We followed the steps for filing an appeal, but since we received this auto-response without any further info, are curious if anyone has encountered a similar response and whether anything further is needed
to appeal the account termination? Youre welcome to email me directly at <a href="mailto:tom@vanderbloemenlaw.com">
