DMs),
Instagram has announced to begin disabling the accounts of people who repeatedly send hateful messages to others on its platform.
Currently, when someone sends DMs that break its rules, the company prohibits that person from sending any more messages for a set period of time. Now, if someone continues to send violating messages, we ll disable their account. We ll also disable new accounts created to get around our messaging restrictions, and will continue to disable accounts we find that are created purely to send abusive messages, Instagram said in a statement late on Wednesday.
