Re: Instagram

Good news, all graphic images of self-harm will be removed from Instagram, the head of the social media platform has told the BBC. Molly's father Ian Russell, "It is now time for other social media platforms to take action to recognise the responsibility they too have to their users if the internet is to become a safe place for young and vulnerable people."
