Instagram will start blurring nude images sent to minors, in a crackdown against teen "sextortion."
As @theverge reports, the new safety measures will be turned on worldwide for users under 18, along with warnings to discourage users from sending them.
TikTok is preparing to launch its own Instagram rival, called TikTok Notes.
A TikTok spokesperson confirmed to @TechCrunch that an app is in the works, after users received pop-up notifications stating the new app was "coming soon".

What about #Instagram ?
The same author wrote an article last year on how to evade censorship of Instagram. Would they write the same advice in case the US bans #TikTok ?
@protonprivacy I'd say keep #TikTok around for a while to break #Meta's monopoly. Uninstall TikTok by all means, but prioritise doing away with #WhatsApp and #Instagram first to keep the balance.
TikTok is reportedly planning to launch a new ̶g̶a̶r̶b̶a̶g̶e̶ app called "TikTok Notes" that will serve as an Instagram rival, allowing users to share photos and text-based posts. #socialmedia#tiktok#tiktoknotes#instagram
