Instagram launches a new key moderation tool that automatically block abusive comments..

Instagram has launched a new feature designed
to stop trolls posting nasty comments on your
photos. The Facebook-owned company today
launched a “keyword moderation tool” that
automatically blocks comments that contain
certain keywords.
You can either create your own list words that
you consider offensive or inappropriate, or use
default words provided by Instagram.
Once the tool is enabled, any comments that are
posted on your photos containing these words
will be invisible to you. The offending comments
will only appear to the commenter and the
commenter’s followers, and will be hidden from
everyone else.
“The beauty of the Instagram community is the
diversity of its members,” said Kevin Systrom,
chief executive and co-founder of Instagram, in a
blog post.
“All different types of people – from diverse
backgrounds, races, genders, sexual orientations,
abilities and more – call Instagram home, but
sometimes the comments on their posts can be
unkind, he noted.
