According to Devi Narasimhan, a Meta spokesman, remixing will be enabled by default, but Instagram will provide options to turn it off. Through the settings menu, users will be able to disable remixing on individual photographs or at the account level. Any images posted previous to the feature’s launch will have remixing disabled by default, but you will be able to enable remixing for individual posts if you like.
This is identical to the technique Instagram adopted when it opened up all public videos for remixing in January, only allowing footage published after the change to be remixed.
