Instagram vile content

15 year old DD has just viewed videos of a man being beheaded with a knife and a video of another man being publicly hanged.
She found them when the account that posted the videos commented on a meme page encouraging people to go to his profile. I’ve reported the account and hopefully they’ll be taken down.
I know people are aware that Instagram has got dangerous/sick content but I want to emphasise how graphic and how easy to find these videos were. She didn’t search for them, these accounts use popular pages to make themselves known.
Please be aware if your kids use the app. My DD is very distressed by it all Sad

There's scum trolls everywhere. Some people are just jerks.
Instagram are pretty good at cleaning up, thankfully.
