Instagram can delete your business in 24 hours.

You built something real. Instagram made it fragile.

1. You wake up to a notification:
   "Your account has been restricted."
2. No warning. No explanation. Thousands of followers, gone. Every DM, every order history, every customer relationship. Inaccessible.
3. And even on a good day, before any of that happens:
4. A customer DMs you. You're in the middle of packing another order. You miss it. They go somewhere else.
5. Another customer sends a screenshot:
   "I've paid already"
6. You're scrolling through 47 DMs trying to match it to an order. You can't remember if it was the blue one or the black one they ordered.
7. Someone messages at midnight:
   "Is this still available?"
8. You're asleep. By morning they've bought from someone who had a real website and a checkout button.

This is what it costs to build on a platform you don't own.
