Quick answers

What tools do you need?

Just the platform account.

How much does it cost?

No paid tools needed: this case uses only the platform itself, which is free to join.

Is it allowed?

Yes. Meta may add an "AI info" label to AI-generated media; disclose paid partnerships. Source.

Watch out: Reposts stripped of context fooled people; keep the AI label visible. The creator told Dazed he gets abuse over the content.

Full write-up & sources

More detail: Its reel of a kangaroo holding a boarding pass while being refused at an airport gate ("No kangaroos on the plane") spread on X and Threads, where many people took it for real.
