CrossFit, the popular fitness and lifestyle program, breaks up with Facebook and Instagram, citing security and privacy concerns.

CrossFit, the popular fitness and lifestyle program with a cult-like following, broke up with Facebook and Instagram on Friday, citing security and privacy concerns.

"All activity on CrossFit, Inc.'s Facebook and Instagram accounts was suspended as of May 22, 2019, as CrossFit investigates the circumstances pertaining to Facebook's deletion of the Banting7DayMealPlan and other well-known public complaints about the social-media company that may adversely impact the security and privacy of our global CrossFit community," CrossFit said in a statement.

The group had 1.65 million users who post testimonials and shared information supporting low-carbohydrate, high-fat diets, the fitness company said. The fitness company said these actions are in line with its"tireless defense of its community against overreaching governments, malicious competitors, and corrupt academic organizations."
