In a related story, the Meta-owned photo sharing app has introduced new features to protect users from abuse, along with updates to Hidden words. Now if a user blocks someone, she/he will have the option to block additional accounts to make it difficult for stalkers to connect with the users again, the company said in a blogpost.
Hidden Words is an effective tool for automatically removing damaging content for message requests and comments. Instagram is testing to automatically turn on Hidden Words for Creator accounts. Every user would be able to turn the Settings on or off at any time and make a customised list with additional words, phases and emojis they might want to hide. A new notification would encourage users to pause and think how they want to respond before replying to a comment that might be offensive.
