Good article, it reminds me why I don't use instagram.

I dont even...........

Yea, this is too far. Not even Google would do this

waht the fuk? the ONLY time I've been asked for a photo ID online was when I was purchasing a dedi server for a minecraft community, but that was only because we were using an unverified paypal buisness account. other than that, I have never, EVER, been asked for a government-issued photo ID for something online.

never going to instagram now.

I am new to blogging, and I enjoyed reading your blog so much! It helped me get inspired to be consistent with it and you mentioned quite a few GREAT tips that I am going to apply in my future blogs. I really appreciate this information! get followers on instagram free

Yet again, why I dislike popular social media.
