Late December, Instagram users across the world were in an uproar over the policy changes made in regards to privacy rights. Some of the new wording within the policy created the perception that Instagram would have the ability and rights to sell photos without the knowledge of the photographer.

While some users have ditched the app completely, others have stuck around, and will continue to keep it in their regular social media usage.

Junior Cassie Johnson is one student sticking with the app.

“I’m not worried about Instagram stealing my photos, and it’s not going to stop me from using it to edit and share them,” she said.

Co-founder of Instagram Kevin Systrom issued an updated terms of service based on the feedback received from users.

In it, Systrom issued an apology to users, as well as a re-affirmed commitment to keep the service at its finest.

“It became clear that we failed to fulfill what I consider one of our most important responsibilities: to communicate our intentions clearly,” he said. “I am sorry for that, and I am focused on making it right.”

While the policies are in the process of being made, users can rest assured, their photos are safe.

“I want to be really clear: Instagram has no intention of selling your photos, and we never did. We don’t own your photos – you do,” Systrom said.
