It seems like a classic case of\u00a0parent-child\u00a0fight where the latter is preparing to leave the house.\u00a0Instagram\u00a0co-founders\u00a0Kevin Systrom\u00a0and\u00a0Mike Krieger\u00a0are reportedly finding\u00a0Facebook’s interference too much to handle and have decided to step down.
\nAs Recode reports, the co-founders have disagreed with\u00a0Facebook\u00a0boss Mark Zuckerberg’s recent product changes including comment tweaks and cross sharing.
\nThe duo sold the photo and video sharing platform to\u00a0Facebook\u00a0back in 2010 for USD 1 billion. Systrom and Krieger confirmed their departure from\u00a0Instagram\u00a0through an official blog, stating the two are taking time off to build new things.
