Instagram unveiled an update on its platform that will filter out any comments viewed as “bullying” starting Tuesday.

The filter is an expansion of Instagram’s update in 2017, which gives users the option to automatically filter out any “offensive” comments.

The popular social media site, with its 800 million users, will use a machine-learning algorithm to detect harassers that’s called DeepText and was developed by Instagram’s owner, Facebook, The New York Times reports.

Hmmm. Probably doesn't include things like threatening businesses with boycott if the fail to comply with certain groups demands though. It's not like that's bullying right?

Bullying?

Oh, That’s easy.

All views that fail to support today’s Politically Correct religion of convenience.

Just another tool for enforcing PC.

So who gets to “pick” what is or not and by ‘whose standards?’

Frankly if you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen!...

“I guess that will force Hogg to stop using it.”

I forgot about that useful idiot - where’s he been?

Well on his way to irrelevancy with Cindy Sheehan.

[Bob434]

of course all Christian content will be deemed ‘bullying’ and ‘threatening’

Can a site legally violate the first amendment?

[[I forgot about that useful idiot - where’s he been?]]

Preparing for his prom date with billy- or whatever his name is

Easy peesey: "Them" demanding anything=1st amendment. "Us" supporting the constitution=hate speech and bullying. 👹

IOW, it will filter out the victims of liberal bullying.

[TBP]

It looks like one can only post there from a phone, not from a desktop.

[rktman]

Their web site, their rules. Well, service at least.

[caww]

Welllll.....we knew it would be a blood thirsty fight so it's going to get worse before it gets better! However I recall this.......

Typing in MAGA will likely get accounts yanked. Good thing I don’t have an account.

Long long ago and far far away. :-)
