Under pressure from the UK government, head of Instagram Adam Mosseri announced that the company is implementing changes that it hopes will prevent younger users from exposure to inappropriate content relating to suicide and self harm. This comes in the wake of the 2017 death of British 14 year old Molly Russell, who followed graphic accounts depicting this type of content.
