Instagram users in Australia can no longer see how much consent has taken a picture, following changes made by platforms to reduce pressure” among users.
As of today, the application update will cause you to hide the total number of preferences in photos and video views.
Users will be able to see who has liked the photo, but s'do t'u shows the total number of consents.
However, this change will not affect business profiles in the Instagram. The audience's views, looks and engagement will continue to be summed up in the Insights segment.
The change is still in the testing phase and will soon apply to New Zealand, Japan, Ireland, Italy and Brazil.
Facebook policy director for Australia and New Zealand Mia Garlick said that in Instagram, people should feel comfortable, they should express themselves without feeling judged.
“We hope that this shift will remove the pressure of the consent that should receive a post and we hope to post things you like,” she said in a statement. We are testing it in Australia to learn something like this, and it improves the experience of Instagram users and if a change like this makes people focus on stories they tell, not on the number of preferences. ”
This change will be permanent or temporary later.
