Why Is Instagram Suddenly Shielding Teens from Mature Content?
Remember the good ol’ days when parental controls meant handing your kid a calculator instead of a smartphone?

I have to admit, there’s something delightfully absurd about watching the world’s biggest photo-sharing app try to babysit an entire generation, armed only with a filter and the world’s least enthusiastic hall monitor—your parents . So, is this progress or just one more setting to forget your password for? Dive into the hilarity and horror of algorithmic parenting and decide for yourself. LEARN MORE
