Instagram users will soon be able to remove unwanted opinions from their accounts. On July 29, Washington Post revealed that Instagram was planning to unveil a new tool to block abusive comments to combat the issue.
Users of the app will be able to filter their own comment streams/ban certain words from showing up beside their photos and if they wish, completely turn off comments on their own posts. The new tool will first be implemented on some popular accounts, followed by all accounts within a few months.
