Advertising Restricted
Anyone notices last few 5-10 days way more Profiles are getting Advertising Restricted for unusual activity and get hit with ID check?
Doesnt matter how long the profiles are warmed up with a godd proxy, I get it on all my accounts, which are Human created and 2016 or older

Are you managing these accounts from one device, without thinking about canvas fingerprint? Are you entering the accounts from questionable locations? Are multiple people entering the account? And what about your payment methods along these accounts?

Facebook advertising groups are full of people complaining about higher ban rate lately, some believe it's due to the US election. Hard to say really, but it's a real issue and so many accounts have been taken down in the past few weeks, it's not even funny anymore.

Each candidate has invested 80+ millions USD just on FB in 2020. We will see after November 3rd. Maybe once that easy money is gone, they will be more lenient.

I watched an interview with the media buying lead of Trumps campaign a few weeks ago, the total campaign (candidate + PACs + SUPER PACs) for Trump on Facebook alone is budgeted for and set to reach $1 billion.

^^ this...
If it would have been something related to the elections then it would have been a simple political ads check or something like that. However, the restrictions/bans are happening even when advertising outside of US and one of the few ways to get your account back is to upload an ID.
Most probably pretty soon it will become mandatory to upload personal IDs and verify your identity before even having the chance of spending even a penny with FB.

I uploaded a personal ID when asked and it's been a week since then and still no response from FB... Is Facebook even worth it at this point if you think it will be mandatory to upload personal IDs to run ads? I feel stuck and I'm not sure if it's smart to start running ads on a different account, I feel like the same thing is going to happen to my other aged accounts.

I doubt so. That is mostly the total cost across all channels.
See by yourself the amount spent on Facebook by both candidates here (click on US then president):

It's pretty incredible seeing it all in one place like that. Not counting the 'internal' Facebook/IG pages, the next top spenders are Exxon-Mobil at
#33 (which might actually be political lobbying ads), and then WestGame all the way at
#55 . I'm not going to add it up, but those numbers seem to indicate the political spend on Facebook is probably pushing $1b/month

Not sure what the elections have to do with a sweepstake campaign in Germany getting banned for example? Naaah, FB is getting better and affiliates are getting worse/lazy. They rip, copy etc so it's very easy to catch them. Things get saturated and flagged much faster now.
Let me repeat this again; the more stuff/tools/tricks you pull, the quicker you get banned. Always rotate domains, payment methods, landers, ad, images when running same offer on multiple camps. It's dead simple, only people overcomplicate it lol.

It's not just affiliate accounts that get banned, this time it's a lot of "snow white legit" businesses getting hit too...
I'm not sure I'm buying the election argument either, but in a way it makes sense, they just might be more cautious now and had modified the settings of the screening bots/scripts that look for traits of suspicious activity. And maybe they included the foreign accounts too in order to prevent actions started from abroad. Just speculating of course, but even the FB officials confirmed that the "appeal backlog" has grown bigger lately.

I agree i doubt anything will change after elections, but we are 100% clean Ecom with good Page Score and still losing BMs and Profiles, doenst make any sense, no response for appeal, all our Profiles are with ID that pass ID checks, it doesnt make any sense. The only thing we do is buying BMs because all ours are blocked, of course in the new Bms we start everyting fresh and clean again
