Meta-owned American photo and video sharing social networking service Instagram is letting live creators appoint moderators during their streams.
Mods will have the ability to report comments, remove viewers from the stream, as well as turn off comments for a specific viewer.
Streamers + Mods = Dynamic Duo ❤️

We’re launching Live Moderator on Instagram Live, where creators can assign a mod and give them the power to:
✅ Report comments
✅ Remove viewers from Live
✅ Turn off comments for a viewer pic.twitter.com/S9j7s4dInB
Instagram notes that creators can assign a moderator by tapping the three dots in the comment bar during a Live. From there, they can choose a moderator from a list of suggested accounts, or use the search bar to search for a specific account.
