Instagram announced a series of features designed to protect users – particularly celebrities and high-profile creators – from hateful comments posted by users who are not among their regular followers.
The Facebook-owned app is launching Limits, a new feature that will automatically hide comments and direct-message requests from people who don't follow you or who only recently followed you.
