Today, Instagram added a new feature where it is now possible to report a persons post for false information.  This new feature has caused outrage all across instagram because posts that are evidently fake are being marked and blurred out.  Instagram blurs out sensitive pictures or videos because they are SENSITIVE.  On the other hand false information is NOT SENSITIVE.  For example they would blur out blood or an animal dying and are now blurring out memes that are obviously false, this just ruins the joke.  (when I say blurred out I mean marked with a blurred screen where you can tap ‘continue’ to see the post)

This new update gives any person the power to report a post ad fake news which eventually will be marked as so.  This feature should be used to blur out any political talk to prevent arguments, not to completely ruin a joke because the boomers thought it was real.
