Why disable your Instagram account?

If you are like any other fan of the photos, you probably have an Instagram account. Instagram is one of the main social networking networks owned by Facebook, and has more than 500 million monthly active users. However, many people are deciding to turn off their Instagram for fear of violating their privacy.
