Instagram reverses service terms: Is it good for users?

User outrage prompted Instagram to revert to its original terms of service regarding advertising, but is Instagram's retreat good for you? Not necessarily.

In fact, Instagram's older terms are more liberal than the newer version it wanted to implement. The older terms could give the company just as much license to control your content as before.

How we got here

It all started when Instagram wanted to insert this language into its terms of service scheduled to take effect in mid-January:

“To help us deliver interesting paid or sponsored content or promotions, you agree that a business or other entity may pay us to display your username, likeness, photos (along with any associated metadata), and/or actions you take, in connection with paid or sponsored content or promotions, without any compensation to you.”
