Instagram and Facebook users claim their accounts have automatically followed Donald Trump , JD Vance , and Melania Trump after the inauguration.

Fears of political interference grew after users reported that Instagram appeared to be blocking searches for '# Democrat ' while '# Republican ' returned millions of results.

The accounts for the President, Vice President, and First Lady are controlled by the White House .

This is not the same as being automatically forced to follow Donald Trump's personal accounts.

Meta refused to show results for '# WithLoveMeghan ' and warned it could be linked to child sexual abuse.

Mark Zuckerberg recently announced that fact-checkers on his platform had been 'too politically biased' Earlier this month , Instagram made a similar mistake when the hashtag for Meghan Markle's new show was accidentally blocked.
