The hyperbole of the talk of violated rights took my sympathy about down to zero. It's a shitty move on Instagram's part to be sure, but I don't think even the most European of Europe's governments defends the right to the Instagram account name of your choice.

- adzicg 11y agoThis is assuming that instagram held the only copy of those pictures (so loss leads to IP being destroyed). I doubt anyone would keep the only copy of any serious IP on a third-party free service. (just to make things clear - I'm not defending instagram, but deleting photos on a service users don't pay for can hardly be called 'destroying IP')
