Instagram covers video of Hamas destruction with a sensitive content filter: An Instagram account known as Israel on Campus Coalition posted a video called "36 Years of Hamas in 36 Seconds." The caption read "For decades, Hamas has caused countless death and destruction. Here's a glimpse at the history of the terrorist group. #IsraelUnderAttack." Instagram placed a sensitive content interstitial over the video that claimed "Sensitive Content. This video may contain graphic or violent content." If a user clicks on the "See Why" link, it explains that Instagram uses "technology or a review team to identify content that should be covered. This post doesn't go against our Community Standards, but may contain images that some people might find upsetting. We cover graphic content so people can choose whether to see it." Users must click on the "See reel" link in order to view the video. According to Facebook, Instagram's sister-company, users fail to click through similar interstitials 95% of the time.
