instagram is now looking to reduce that feeling on the photo sharing platform, and the facebook-ownedpany thinks the key is to remove the like counts on posts. it is already doing in countries like canada, japan, and brazil. we spoke to the head of instagram, adam mosseri. instagram a little bit. we are really focused on young counts private, it may allow people to focus for a little bit more on what they care about. we have been testing this in a number of countries around the world. >> the idea being, if i can't see how many likes your photo gets, that might decrease my pressure around sharing myself? adam: you will be able to see how many likes your own photo gets but not how many likes other people's photos get. the idea is to reduce anxiety and social comparison, specifically with an eye towards young people. kurt: what are you seeing? is it changing the way people interact with instagram? adam: we are seeing different things in different countries. we want to understand how it changes how people use instagram but more importantly, how it , changes how people feel. measuring how

facebook trying to jumpstart its little used instagram tv. so, it will fund celebrities as long as they don't say anything about politics or elections. this comes after backlash for facebook's decision to allow politicians to lie in advertisements on the site. my first thought was, good, because i don't care what they have to say about politics. is that what is going on here? >> it is a really interesting policy for these creators to not be able to talk about clinical youes as facebook makes a -- about political issues as facebook makes a huge deal about not censoring political ads it is not just that they can't talk about elections, they also can't talk about anything facebook considers a political issue. they can't talk about climate change, guns, immigration, even health policy. all these things that are just part of the general discussion that you would expect someone to want to have if they get their production costs paid for by instagram. taylor: why? sarah: instagram says there is a big difference between letting them talk about these t

what they have found out is that the more people understand that facebook owns whatsapp and instagram have more favorable opinions of facebook. regulators are looking that and saying, you are in the middle of an antitrust investigation, you are trying to more closely integrate the products at this point looks like a political move. taylor: another story as well, facebook is the gift that keeps on giving in the news world. facebook has been accused in a lawsuit of censorship. walk me through this story? sarah: facebook has been trying to apply its policies so there is no harm, no attacks on policies that should be protected. they thought the whistleblower was that kind of case. however, their policies are not universally applied. there is a lot of subjectivity. generally, facebook tends to act when there is public outcry. while this guy, his post got taken down, other people's haven't. this lawsuit will bring to light a lot of the editorial decisions. whether those are fairly applied across all of its users. taylor: thank you. coming up, how pro-china online groups are widening the div

instagram and facebook are about social media, connecting, it should be creative communities, this iss going on in predominantly young girls‘ brains as they see this kind of content?” think young people who feel like they might want to self—harm are feeling quite low and isolated and lonely, they want to join a community of other young people who understand them, that is part of the motivation forjoining these communities. unfortunately it can encourage people to self—harm in a way that is unhelpful. if they are viewing this content regularly, people speak about a toxic digital culture, people can feel competitive about self—harm in a way that is very unhelpful, it can almost be a badge of honour, the closer you come to committing suicide the more you are accepted by your peers, which is extremely worrying. there are people cynical about that. one viewer says, come on, how does someone convince you to harm or kill yourself? let‘s talk about the real issue, poor parenting and a lack of family structure. i use saying if you co nsta ntly structure. i use saying if you constantly see this

is painting a picture that instagram only became the behemoth we know today because of facebook'swill never know the actual answer to what instagram could have become on its own, but i think that's going to be their pitch and that's going to be there framing going forward. taylor: we talk about instagram's strength relative to facebook, but the antitrust scrutiny around eyeballs, around advertising, and what would happen if you split those two apart. kurt: it's hard to even fathom because most of instagram's business is built on facebook technology. if you're an advertiser on instagram's platform, you're using the same platform, the same technology to send and purchase ads on instagram, too. in some ways, instagram would in theory have to build that all from scratch if they were to be broken up. at the same time, they have the audience there. people already know, advertisers understand the appeal of instagram, so it wouldn't have to do a lot of selling, but it would create a technical challenge of if you were to split them up, how would that work because they use the same infrastr
