Meta allegedly gave accounts engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex” 16 chances before suspending them, according to testimony from the company’s former head of safety and well-being, Vaishnavi Jayakumar. The testimony — along with several other claims that Meta ignored problems if they increased engagement — surfaced in an unredacted court filing related to a social media child safety lawsuit filed by school districts across the country.

"Promise me you won't be sending 15 year olds to your island next time, Epstein, or you will be banned if you do it again for the 16th time."

Although, seriously, this explains a lot why Trump admin and the oligarchs are sexual deviants.

I think, more likely, they had a 3 strike rule. But he kept breaking it, so they increased it to 4. And again. And again.

And that's how we ended up at 16

So in reality they had an n + 1 strike policy. Brilliant.
