Instagram launches new tool to monitor offensive comments

Sharing is caring: Instagram users can share pictures directly with one friend or a group of people and send back text responses or pictures.

Instagram, the photo-sharing app owned by Facebook Inc, on Sept 12 launched a keyword moderation tool to allow its users to control the comments posted on their pictures. 

The feature allows its users to list words that they consider offensive or inappropriate and then comments with those words would be hidden from the user's posts.
