This Saturday morning, when the journalist and writer Cristina Fallarás went to open her Instagram account, she was unable to. The Meta application has been closed without any explanation beyond a message warning her to “take the necessary measures” or “you will lose access.” It occurs six days after, through that same account, Fallarás made public an anonymous testimony from a woman who claimed to have been a victim of sexist violence by a politician. At no time and in no case did he publish any name, but just three days later Íñigo Errejón, Sumar’s spokesman until then resigned, He handed in his deputy certificate, acknowledged the facts and abandoned institutional politics.
Why has your account been closed? Fallarás only receives that message in which they inform her that she “does not comply” with the community standards and that if she “believes” that they have made a mistake, she has until April 24 of next year to appeal the decision. She has already done it, but she says, on the phone, that she is “very worried.” He points out that he posted the testimony as always, “without giving names, ever.” Even in anonymity, the testimony led to a political crisis that affects the minority partner of the Government.
