Platform Extreme Instagram Pushing Eating Disorder Content On Kids, Claims Shocking Report
A shocking new report has revealed that Instagram is actively promoting content related to extreme dieting and eating disorders to children as young as nine. The news comes several months after the company admitted that there was a problem related to such content on the platform. The admission came following an investigation by Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal, whose staff found that the platform was recommending dangerous pro-anorexia content to an account purported to be that of a minor. The company later removed the extreme dieting accounts mentioned in the Senator's complaint, apparently for breaking its policies against encouraging eating disorders.
