Instagram cracking down on bullying

This browser does not support the video element.

Instagram is going to let you know when you're being mean.

It's launching two features to combat bullying: comment warnings and a restrict option.

The comment warning can supposedly detect offensive or "borderline" content as a user is typing, then prompt them to reconsider before they post.

Instagram officials said it will also soon begin testing a "restrict" option that will allow users to hide comments from specific users without notifying those users that they've been muted.
