They did you a favor.

Using a well know VPN or disposable email? You triggered their bot/scam account protections somehow.

My email account is not from one of the tech giants and I think that's what they don't like. If I had tried to make an account using a Gmail account, I suspect they would have let me in. But I am not a bot or a scammer. Their policy is shutting out real human beings.

Gmail is not anonymous, is it? Some of these email accounts require you give them your phone number, and that number is associated with a name. I think Instagram and the other controllers (like Google) want to know exactly who is saying what. Saidit does not do these things, and I am thankful for that. I'm not trying to hide my identity, though, but I want to keep my own email account. Saidit does not have a problem with that.

Bless your heart.

So you're using, what, a VPN, or Tor, or some identity-masking browser?

None of those.... I used the Firefox browser.
