's parent company – gave evidence on 23 September, expressing that Instagram allows certain content because it is being “posted in order to create awareness”, for people to “come together for support” or for someone to “talk about their own experience”.flew to the UK to issue a formal apology for Molly being able to view self-harm and suicidal content on the platform.

Oliver Sanders KC, representing the Russell family, challenged Lagone repeatedly on whether a child would be able to tell the difference between "content that encourages or raises awareness" of suicide and self-harm, according toLagone replied: "I really can’t answer that question because we don’t allow content that encourages self-injury.

The court was shown Instagram's guidelines at the time of Molly's death, which said that users were allowed to post content about suicide andto “facilitate the coming together to support” other users but not if it “encouraged or promoted” it. The inquest also saw some of the disturbing video content that Molly consumed before her death – which depicted incidents of self-harm and suicide – as well as the 'recommended' accounts she was encouraged to follow. Seven per cent of said accounts were either "sad or depressive related".Conversations about mental health still stall at polite thresholds. Self-harm needs to be talked about, too.

"We continue to improve the technology we use, and between April and June 2022, we found and took action on 98.4% of suicide or self-harm content identified on Instagram before it was reported to us, up from 93.8% two years ago. We’ll continue to work closely with independent experts, as well as teens and parents, to help ensure our apps offer the best possible experience and support for teens.
