[CONTENT WARNING]

Instagram is a haven for child predators and a host to the broadcasting of child sex abuse fantasies. Contrary to corporate claims that there's 'no place' for content that exploits or endangers children, exploitative, graphic and degrading comments directed at underage girls are rampant on the Facebook-owned platform. 

Our campaign partners at National Center on Sexual Exploitation met with Instagram heads last December to discuss the ways Instagram puts children at risk and how child safety on Instagram could be improved. Instagram said that the matter of predatory comments will be investigated.  

Meanwhile, men continue to use Instagram to harass and fetishise little girls. See below for our latest roundup of child sex abuse fantasies and other predatory comments freely broadcast on Instagram. We will continue to expose and call out this predatory behaviour!

Take action today!

Help put pressure on Instagram corporate leaders to stop facilitating behaviours that harm children. Join the Twitter conversation using @collectiveshout #WakeUpInstagram and #InstaPimpsGirls.

‘Sexy girl’: How Instagram allows the offering of young girls as fetishised flesh

1. According to Fox News Facebook stated “Any content that endangers or exploits children is unthinkable and has no place on Instagram. We have policies that prohibit this type of content, and we use proactive technology to find and remove content that poses a risk to children. We’re constantly working on more ways to help prevent this behaviour on our platform.”

But we've found countless comments that have been up on underage girls' photos for up to a year. How is this using "proactive technology"? We've also reported hundreds of comments, many of which have taken weeks to get actioned and often the reply from Instagram is that they do not violate community guidelines. 

These comments here are from 27 weeks ago and 14 weeks ago. Also a comment regarding a topless shoot on a child's picture apparently did not violate Instagram's community guidelines:

Here's an example of comments from a man describing his desire to sexually assault a girl which apparently do not violate Instagram's community guidelines. And another example of a comment that had been up for 54 weeks:

This comment describing the sexual assault of and underage girl had been up for 38 weeks when we found it:

‘Sexy girl’: How Instagram allows the offering of young girls as fetishised flesh

Victims live in fear knowing images of their abuse are circulating the web

Facebook faced over 50,000 potential revenge porn cases in January alone.

A closed men’s Facebook group with a membership of 15,000 recently received a post from a member displaying pictures of himself having sex with a woman without her consent.

I personally wanted to express my appreciation to everyone who has written a letter to a corporate offender, lodged a complaint with the Advertising Standards Board, sent a tweet, shared a Facebook post and given financially, all to work towards our goal; for a world free of sexploitation.

Today we have reached a milestone - 25,000 likes on Facebook!

It is because of everyday people like you that we can continue to be a 'Collective Shout' against the pornification of our culture.

[UPDATE] WIN! Facebook responds, commits to change

From Women, Action and the Media:

"..."In a statement released today, Facebook addressed our concerns and committed to evaluating and updating its policies, guidelines and practices relating to hate speech, improving training for its content moderators and increasing accountability for creators of misogynist content."

"More Australian men buy and read ZOO than any other magazine in the country – that’s a fact." - ACP Magazines, Zoo Magazine distributor

[UPDATE] Page deleted from Facebook

A petition was recently launched to pressure Facebook to remove a page called '12 year old slut memes.'

The page, used to bully, humiliate, expose and shame young girls had attracted over 200,000 'likers.'

Activists petition Facebook to uphold policies

It’s not the first time Facebook has come under fire for inappropriate or illegal content.
