Insta Is Finally Restricting Those Sh*tty Detox Tea Ads & Jameela Jamil Is Bloody Chuffed
Good news! It looks like the powers that be at Instagram and Facebook have finally decided to put age restrictions on the promotion of any comestic surgery services and diet products on their platforms. Now if you’re under 18, you won’t be able to see any content relating to those sh*tty detox teas, appetite suppressant lollipops and the like.
Actor and body positivity campaigner, Jameela Jamil, is said to have played a role in bringing these new restrictions to life. She took to Twitter and Instagram to share the news, calling the move a “huge step” in the right direction.
It’s just the coolest thing to be a part of. A big congrats to all of the people who made noise about this. We have all made a huge step in protecting young people from the perils of the devious diet/detox industry. Onwards and upwards we go. Social media now. Next: The law. https://t.co/AfsWceP5zT
