X (Twitter) competitor, Threads, announced today the addition of three new features: direct post sharing to your Instagram DMs, custom alt-text for photo/video, and a new mention button.
Downloading a video you've watched online can be more difficult than expected. Most sites prefer you to revisit them and view their ads every time, but this may not be ideal for several reasons.
A hot potato: Meta employees and contractors have had access to an internal system for recovering user accounts for a while now. The deployment of this tool grew dramatically over the last few years, giving even more users permissions. Now, the company appears to be cracking down on access. One reason may be misuse within Facebook's own customer service.
In context: It's a sad fact that many women on social media will have unintentionally viewed an unsolicited nude photo in their DMs at some point. It's a problem that's especially prevalent on Instagram, but a new tool could help prevent such incidents, and without compromising the receiver's privacy.
