Meta is pushing back on claims from social media users who say they've been forced to follow Facebook and Instagram accounts belonging to U.S. President Donald Trump, his wife Melania Trump and Vice-President J.D. Vance.

Stone (META Communications Director) writing on Meta's Threads platform, said the confusion was due to the previous administration giving control of the official @POTUS account to Trump's team.

Anyone who had been following @POTUS during the Biden administration, for example, would still be a follower after control of the account had been handed over to the new administration.


Stone did not directly address claims that some users had to repeatedly unfollow those accounts, but said it "may take some time for follow and unfollow requests to go through as these accounts change hands."
