Negative result with scope: in the three Wayback captures of the Instagram Help Center article "Label AI content on Threads" (2026-02-15, 2026-06-10, 2026-09-04) there is no sentence about removing, editing, appealing or turning off a label, and the only statement about a creator who does not label is that a label is applied if Meta detects AI generation. The Facebook and Instagram sibling articles were not located, the live Help Center pages and the ads article are JavaScript shells for curl, and the Wayback capture of the ads article carries no body text. An agent should therefore record who applied the label (creator or system) and mark removal as unverified rather than promise it.
