“Instagram, helps connect & promote a vast network of accounts openly devoted to the commission and purchase of underage sex content, according to investigations by the Wall Street Journal, & researchers at Stanford University & University of Massachusetts.
Instagram doesn’t merely host these activities, ITS ALGORITHMS PROMOTE THEM.
Instagram connects pedophiles & guides them to content sellers buy & recommendations systems that excel at linking those who share niche interests.
Instagram enabled people to search explicit hashtags such as #Pedowhore & #PreTeenSex & connected them to accounts used to advertise child sex material for sale.
Such accounts were claimed to be ran by the children themselves & use overtly sexual handles using words such as “LittleSlutForYou”
