The web version of Instagram allows you to anonymously report posts or profiles that violate the rules of the platform, helping to remove inappropriate content. Just like on cell phones, it is possible to indicate publications that violate the terms of use of the social network by the computer. Some examples are cases of spam, hate speech, violence, abuse, harassment or bullying, nudity or pornography, drug sales, plagiarism or images that encourage self-harm or suicide. Check out the following tutorial on how to report posts and profiles on Instagram from your PC.
