<p>When in doubt, blur it out. That’s how Instagram is handling any controversial photos that surface on its platform.</p><p>On Thursday, Instagram announced a new policy to blur out “sensitive” content that users have flagged as either offensive or disturbing. The blurred photos and videos do not explicitly violate Instagram’s content guidelines, so they don’t warrant a removal by Instagram standards. However, some users may still find them too sensitive to view. </p><p>“While these posts don’t violate our guidelines, someone in the community has reported them and our review team has confirmed they are sensitive,” the Instagram team wrote in a blog post announcing the policy. “This change means you are less likely to have surprising or unwanted experiences in the app.”</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3184439/social-media/instagram-adds-two-factor-authentication-censors-photos-that-are-deemed-offensive-or-disturbing.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
