Jed was cancelled by Instagram. It's cost him $50,000

Exclusive: Jed Zimmer estimates he's lost close to $50,000 in earnings since his Instagram business account was suspended by Meta's AI system.

The 27-year-old fitness coach from the Gold Coast had been posting to his @the__healthproject account for six years without issue.

Then a horrifying email landed in his inbox on December 22 last year.

Jed's Instagram account was wrongly suspended. It's cost him $50,000.

It said his account had been suspended for violating Meta's community standards regarding child sexual exploitation, abuse or nudity.

Zimmer felt sick.

"I know personally that it's just a total error," he told nine.com.au.

"But to have that accusation thrown around, it's a pretty sickening feeling."
