Es la pregunta que suele hacer mucha gente que sufre algún tipo de acoso en Instagram, o bien, percibe contents no deseado en su feed.
From the "other side of the show" we ask ourselves ... "And for my account to be closed, do I need many to report me?" Is it possible to find a way to make a "collective complaint"? . Fortunately, there is not so much turning to the matter. It is easier than you think
