Summary

Dublin-based photographer Dragana Jurisic's Instagram account was disabled and her photos removed from Facebook after posting a photograph of a nude model with self-censored breasts. Jurisic expressed frustration over the removal, stating that Instagram applied double standards in its censorship policies, while peers pointed out that similar images posted by others were not subjected to the same action.
