Hi all i haven’t done much Instagram marketing since 2015/2016. Can you tell me if it is still ok to use images from google or does Instagram have some algorithm to lower your account score for using copyright images etc. ---

They can easily tell you took the images from google. At the least you’d need to change the md5 hash on it with a tool. It’s better to find a source that is not from google and is not widely used. ---

Picking up on this one. I’m a little confused as to Copyright images of people. Obviously royalty free images are a no-brainer. However, what about other images say taken from Pinterest. For example, if you’re posting say a fashion outfit of a model wearing the clothes. Where does the copyright come in? For example: [https://www.instagram.com/p/BnTymTbFna0/?taken-by=fashionbeanscom](https://www.instagram.com/p/BnTymTbFna0/?taken-by=fashionbeanscom)
