If you're like me and saw the meme on Instagram warning of changes to their privacy policy that would take effect this week, then you and I and a slew of celebrities have all been bamboozled.

The message was kind of convoluted but essentially warned Instagram users that it's rolling out new changes to its privacy policy to let old messages and private photos be used in court cases against its users. And "...that everything you've ever posted becomes public from today," the post states. "Even messages that have been deleted."

Well, never mind that. It's all a hoax!! And that's from the CEO of Instagram, Adam Mosseri. Whew!! That's a relief! Happy posting!
