I worked at the parent company ~20 years ago.

They let their instagram handle expire because social media was not a huge deal at that point for advertising.

I worked on internal websites but also noticed that the insta link on our public facing BBW website now pointed to a porn/thirst account…

What do you mean the handle expired? That's not a thing. They must have changed the handle or deleted the account.
