Instagram has started using video selfies to verify user identity. Instagram owner, Meta, says that video selfies that users upload will never be visible on Instagram and will be deleted in 30 days. The company will just use the video clip to tell the company’s AI algorithms that the user is, in fact, a real person. Video selfie verification has been in development by Instagram for quite a while now. This security check started rolling out last August 2020. The feature is being implemented for new accounts; so far, existing accounts don’t need to verify their identification via video selfie yet. They just record a short selfie video and Meta compares it with the profile photos they already have to make sure it’s really them. The Rich Text Editor, which is available to Telegram Premium users , handles headings, tables , lists, quotes code blocks, and it even lets you add inline photos and videos.
