Meta IS still requiring a facebook account

I refuse to have another facebook account.  They have deleted my profile because of a picture I posted of me fishing at the lake.  (Yes it was a clean picture, nothing dirty).  They gave no explanation but it violated their community standards.  The only thing I could come up with was I load my pictures into a picfair account where they are trademarked with a watermark.  However I still own full copyrights to pictures to use as I see fit, as long as its me.  I posted picfairs info about this matter to them, it did no good.  Im done.  But this requiring a social media site for this standalone unit to work, is getting old.  Im about to send it back.  AND YES, if anything happens with the headset or app, it will ask you to log in to your meta account through FACEBOOK or INSTAGRAM, it gives you no other options for any others.  or by email, but all that does is run you in circles right back to the aforementioned problem.
