Instagram will make accounts for teens private by default

Instagram is also limiting how advertisers target teenagers.

From cyberbullying to comparing oneself to others on the platform, Instagram has grappled with several challenges affecting teenagers.

They also won’t be able to follow the accounts of teens or comment on their posts.

These changes also apply to ads on Facebook and on Facebook’s messaging app Messenger.

Advertisers will still be able to target teenagers based on age, gender and location.
