Instagram Considers Censoring Nude Images Sent Via Direct Messages

Instagram is developing a new feature that will allow them to censor all kinds of content that includes nudity. and sent via direct social media messages.

In this new system, users must express their consent in order to be able to open images. Alessando Paluzzi, an expert in reverse engineering and application development, showed through his Twitter account some screenshots of what the new feature will look like.

In the image shared by the expert, you can see a post in which Instagram says its anti-nudity protection uses technology that allows you to cover photos containing elements of nudism. In addition, the platform clarifies that Instagram will not be able to access content sent via private messages.

They claim that this is not necessary as the image analysis technology used to cover up nudity comes from the user’s own phone, so there is no need to do this process from Instagram’s servers.

Until now it is unknown when the new nudity detection system will reach the general publicso users have high expectations.

They also clarify that the feature can be turned off at any time from the app’s configuration area.

The development of this feature is part of Meta’s plans to reduce the chance that minors or children may access sensitive content or content that is inappropriate for them.

In this sense Instagram announces more restrictions for users under 18 in such a way that they do not have access to materials that are not adapted to their age.

Similarly Instagram has launched a space called the Families Hub where parents or representatives of minors can track the type of content their children have access to. while browsing the Internet. This includes the ability to see which accounts minors are following and which accounts are following them.

This tool also lets representatives know if a child is reporting a third-party account.
