Such a cowardly move. The gratitude for the cooperation in implementing the Signal protocol in WhatsApp back in the day can be seen from miles away...

Can't get Instagram ads if you don't have an Instagram.

Can you share a way to replicate this? Maybe if more people replicate this users could be more aware

Try reaching out to them, it'd be interesting to see their response, like the actual reasoning of why you couldn't advertise that.
Ads are disabled regularly, so let's assume it was automatically blocked a.k.a. a mistake (probably wasn't) and fight it back to see how it goes?

I don't see you breaking any of their guidelines that's what I mean.
