Neil Young Instagram Post with the text: At Neil Young's request, we are no longer using Instagram for any Neil Young related activities. Meta's use of chatbots with children is unconscionable. Mr. Young does not want a further connection with that company.

Related: Meta’s chatbots held ‘sensual’ chats with kids, offered false medical info.

      If you don’t care, don’t comment.

        It would help to know why one should care as not everyone is in the know what this person is about.

          And it’s perfectly possible to ask that question without coming across like an ass.

            OP may was a bit too direct with the question but juat reading the question for what it is it’s just a request to know “What makes this important vs any other person doing the same?”

            Not what he has done right now.
            I mean in general what makes him notable?
            Is he an important artist, does he engage in something meaningful, etc.
