Photos were seen as the most private type of content, and 'Instagram' really flipped that on its head and said photos can be really public.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People want to share their photos publicly with lots of people.
Just so everyone knows, we're not a photo-sharing company. I don't see photos on 'Instagram' as art. They're much more about communication.
'Instagram' is a media company. I think we're about visual media. I explain ourselves as a disruptive entertainment platform that enables communication through visual media. I don't think it's just photos.
'Instagram' is great if you want to share photos, but you're not that technical. Or, if you're not interested in sharing publicly, 'Instagram' becomes a place where you can not only consume photos and videos from musicians, or whoever, but send them directly to your friends.
Instagram was created because there was no single place dedicated to giving your mobile photos a place to live and to be seen.
Instagram is a media company. I think we're about visual media.
Really, we're just taking people and shifting them from taking photos anyway to taking them on 'Instagram'.
Instagram. Pictures. Lots of pictures! I don't really care to read everyone's thoughts.
Media reporting denied privacy to anybody doing what I do for a living. It was no longer possible to work on your picture in privacy.
When someone takes a private photo, on a private cell phone, it should remain just that: private.
