Until now, Instagram allowed anyone to go live, regardless of their follower count or whether their account was public or private.

    I wish I had Elon Musk money so I could buy this platform and turn it back to pictures only with the main focus on professional and hobbyist photographers - not pictures of food and selfies. It used to be one of the few social media platforms I actually liked.
