YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) – Locals across Yuma County are sharing their reaction to Instagram’s new policy to protect kids online.
In an announcement Tuesday, Instagram says their teen users will only see content on the app similar to what they might see while watching a movie with a PG-13 rating.
They say site will hide or limit more mature and sensitive content for those under 18 like swear words, risky stunts and accounts that routinely post adult content, and says every teen would automatically be opted in.
Reporter Joaquin Hight will have local reaction to Instagram’s newest policy later this evening.
