> I don't know anything about instagram's infrastructure but what I can tell you for certain is that every one of these companies has legacy infrastructure

So you don't know anything about Instagram but at the same time know for certain that they have legacy infrastructure that keeps them from meeting legal requirements? How about we don't give them a pass just because it requires a bit of work to comply with laws and regulations.

Maybe its just me but I have yet to work for a company that didnt have legacy infrastructure that was hold them back in some way. Even the startups I've worked for had to make odd business decisions in order to take on new customers. Those odd one-offs and business decisions eventually led to sprawling legacy infrastructure. If there is an infrastructure Utopia I have yet to work there or hear of it.
