Ofcom investigates Meta over Instagram Instants feature

What the coverage shows

Both BBC News and The Guardian US lead on Ofcom’s investigation into Meta over Instagram’s Instants feature and agree that the regulator’s concern is the adequacy of Meta’s risk assessment before launch. The BBC says Instagram had not fully assessed the risks posed by Instants, while The Guardian frames the case as a possible breach of the Online Safety Act and adds that the feature was “Snapchat-style.” The Guardian is the only outlet to mention Mark Zuckerberg by name.
