Business as usual. Drop the ban hammer haphazardly.

Of course. Look at it from Instagram's perspective:

If someone tells you one of your tools is suspicious or could be a liablity for whatever reason, the most efficient thing to do is simply discard it.

Paranoia like a coked-out Tony Montana isn't a sustainable business strat, but an efficient way to snatch defeat from the jaws of success. Not everyone is "out to get you."

Did the owners of thus Instagram account create the orginial artwork? What’s the origin story?

From memory, the original image/clip was taken directly from a Ghibli movie, "Whisper of the Heart", but following a copyright complaint, it was replaced with an original work that was the same style and subject matter (a girl with her cat studying in her room, with a nice view out the window).

The visuals are original since 2017.

But the music which streams live on YouTube for ages I have no idea. Could be AI generated, could be original, could be stolen. The music (elevator lofi trip hop) is streaming for years without any interruption.

Lofi Girl is part of ChilledCow label, so every songs come from signed artists.
