The #MeToo campaign that has gained strength in the past 72 hours has been quite the social media revolution with women from all walks of life taking to social media to voice how they were sexually harassed.

Some men, too, shared stores of how they were responsible for the women suffering both at home and at the workplace, and issued an apology for their behaviour.

But there are some who don't seem to car; one of them is Instagram user Vinay Nair (@v9nair). Nair claims to be a "A big fan of backless blouse wearing women." And his videos that show him randomly molesting women by feeling up their backs is nothing short of creepy.

So far, he has shared several videos on his Instagram handle. While he has been rightfully called a creep and a serial molester, Instagram hasn't taken any action against him.

People have already outraged on Twitter about the videos

Instagram in its terms and conditions says exploitation can be reported in the case of an account sharing child exploitation such as child pornography and human trafficking. They also have terms and conditions when it comes to a convicted sex offender. The terms and conditions on the website says, "Convicted sex offenders aren't allowed to use Instagram. If you've encountered an account that may belong to a convicted sex offender,"

There is no information whether Nair is convicted, so he goes scot free unless the account is reported multiple times. Even then, from the comments, it appears that Nair has his share of fanboys as well.

Interestingly, a number of people have tagged Mumbai police on Twitter, since Nair hails from Mumbai, but since the cops don't have an Instagram handle, no action has been taken so far.
