Instagram denies study claiming it boosts semi-nudity

Instagram is accused of boosting content containing semi-nudity, based on a study. The company denies the claim, stating that posts are surfaced based on interests and timeliness, and that the study was flawed due to its extremely small sample size. No harm or further action was reported.
