Tech giant Meta has imposed restrictions and blocked the accounts of a number of projects that are part of the ecosystem of Ukrainian IT product company Genesis.
This was reported by AIN.UA, citing its own sources familiar with the situation.
Journalists checked the availability of social media pages and found that the AMO company page is currently completely unavailable, and the w7g profile cannot be found on Facebook. In addition, a number of other Genesis portfolio projects — including Boosters, Keiki, Universe, and OBRIO — currently have abnormally low follower counts (ranging from 46 to 662), which also indicates possible sanctions from Meta.
In a comment to the publication, Genesis representatives confirmed the existence of temporary restrictions, but emphasized that the companies' operations continue unchanged.
«Cooperation with Meta continues, and the relevant companies use the communication channels provided by the platform to clarify the status and, if necessary, initiate its review. Each company in the ecosystem independently determines its marketing strategy. Work with consumers is built on a diversified system of partnerships, and periodic redistribution of activity between them is standard practice,» Genesis noted.
Recall that the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a lawsuit against Ukrainian IT product company Genesis Tech, its founders and a number of affiliated companies. At the request of the regulator, a federal court temporarily suspended the activities of some Genesis-related structures in the US — they are suspected of misleading consumers through hidden charges and artificially complicating the cancellation of subscriptions.
In early July, the District Court for the Northern District of California extended the freezing of assets of ten companies associated with the Universe Group, OBRIO, and AMO projects, as well as three individuals, until the conclusion of the trial.
