Instagram makes it easy for pedophiles to get in touch with children and items of
child pornography.
Last week the news of Instagram having algorithms and explicit hashtags practically
inviting pedophiles, and making it easy for them to search for child pornography, hit
the public.
The Wall Street Journal, along with researchers form the University of
Massachusetts Amherst and Stanford University exposed accounts with hashtags
such as # preteensex, and # pedowhore, just to name a couple.
After searching these hashtags, it showed the users are able to select their choice
from menu options of content they are interested in. Such content includes, but is
not limited to, the sale of videos showing images of bestiality and self-harm.
“Coded” emojis were also sent to users after the said hashtags were searched like a cheese pizza and a map; initials of child pornography, and minor-attracted person respectively.
Perhaps these findings will spark Interest from the fake news media to actually investigate and report on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and all social media instead of covering up their roles in allowing child trafficking and child pornography on these sites.
