Similarly, a scraper actor published on a marketplace initially showed as public but was unfindable, with its visibility later restored by an unknown account-level check. Finally, a newsletter reported zero subscribers, but this was due to an account pause that also prevented confirmation emails from being sent, despite the delivery path functioning. AI
