Photo-sharing app Instagram has introduced new community guidelines to control harassment and pornography.

According to the Verge, these were the biggest changes in the guidelines since Instagram was acquired by Facebook in 2012.

The move by Instagram came after critics complained that the rules were lax and enforced with double standards.

Nicky Jackson Colaco, director of public policy for Instagram said that the language in the guidelines is much stronger now.
