Instagram’s Brave Decision, Explained

00:00

[elegant music]

00:05

Hi, I’m Matt.

00:06

And I’m Maht.

00:07

We’re the interns in charge of Instagram’s

00:08

ethics and public health division.

00:10

It’s just the two of us.

00:11

[comic boing]

00:12

You may have heard about our brave decision

00:13

to hide all of the likes on Instagram.

00:14

[clapping]

00:15

And you might be asking yourself,

00:16

but wait, then what it is all for?

00:18

Why am I posting and creating all this great content

00:21

without a digital scoreboard?

00:22

[booing]

00:22

What metric will I use to measure my self-worth?

00:25

Will people still be jealous

00:26

that I was at Yacht Week at San Tropez?

00:28

Will anyone be impressed that I took a photo

00:30

eating a slice of New York pizza at a Mayan ruin in Tulum?

00:33

Well, don’t worry.

00:34

While your fiends won’t be able to see your likes,

00:36

you will still be able to see your likes.

00:38

[cheering]

00:39

Or should we say, your lack of likes?

00:40

Your prison of digital futility continues.

00:42

[ocmic boing]

00:43

With new Instagram, you’ll still

00:44

always be a failure to yourself.

00:45

So, in a show of solidarity, we’re urging you

00:48

not to like this video.

00:49

If this video gets too many likes, we’ll both be fired.

00:52

Immediately.

00:53

Please don’t like the video.

00:54

I need this internship.

00:55

Mark Zuckerberg knows where I live.

00:57

Scroll away.

00:58

He waits outside my house.

01:00

That doesn’t happen to me, but don’t like this video.

01:03
