THE SAFETY SIGNALMonthly newsletter

What happens at Meta eventually reaches you. Better to know a month ahead.

Once a month I send a short issue: what Meta changed in policy, which new features shipped for Facebook and Instagram, and what's worth checking in your account to stay on the safe side. Five minutes of reading. If there isn't much to report that month, the issue is simply shorter.

  • One issue a month
  • One-click unsubscribe
  • Your address is never sold to anyone

What Goes Into an Issue

01

Meta Update

Meta changes the rules and ships new features without properly announcing them. I follow what happens in the advertiser interfaces, in policy, and in product updates, and translate it into what actually matters to anyone running a page, a campaign, or a business profile from Israel.

02

Case of the Month

One case from the past few weeks. Which account got blocked, what the real reason was (almost never the one written in Meta's notice), what we did, and how many days it took. Names hidden, details not.

03

One Check

Something small you can do the same day that genuinely lowers risk. A permission left open, two-factor authentication that was never enabled, an admin who left the company two years ago and is still listed on the asset.

Who This Newsletter Is Written For

It's for you if

  • You manage clients' ad accounts and are responsible for them
  • All of your business leads come from Facebook or Instagram
  • You've already been hit by a ban once and don't want another
  • You have access to other people's assets and want to sleep well at night

It's less for you if

  • You're looking for ways to bypass Meta. I don't write about that.
  • You want an email every morning. This arrives once a month.
  • You don't touch paid advertising and have no assets to manage

Who Writes This

I'm Osher Revach. I've handled more than 2,500 Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp accounts that were blocked, hacked, or disabled — and a large share of them could have been prevented with five minutes of work months earlier.

When the ban wave of July 2026 hit Israel, N12 and ice reached out to me to analyze what was happening. This newsletter is what I see from the other side of the ban, before it reaches you as a real-time crisis.

Before You Leave Your Email

How many emails am I going to get?

One a month, at the start of the month. If something truly urgent comes up, like an active ban wave, an extra email goes out. That happened twice in the past year.

Does it cost money?

No. The issue is free. Sometimes there's a pointer at the end to our course or service, but most of the issue is information you can apply without paying for anything.

What happens with my email address?

It is stored with our email provider and used only to send the issue. It is not sold, not rented, and not passed to any third party.

Can I unsubscribe?

Yes, via the link at the bottom of every email. One click, no forms, and no asking why.

My account is blocked right now. Will the issue help?

Not in real time. The issue is built for prevention. If you're in the middle of a block, write to us on WhatsApp and we'll tell you if there's something to do.

The next issue goes out at the start of the month

Leave a name and an address and you'll get it when it comes out. If it isn't worth the five minutes, the unsubscribe link is at the bottom of the email.
