Instagram has announced that it recently reached the milestone of 500 million monthly users, which is certainly a cause for celebration.
Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO, owner and founder of Instagram’s developer Facebook posted a whimsical celebratory picture of himself, marking the achievement.

- Puts tape over the laptop’s microphone
- Uses an email platform with government-grade security features
