JACKSON, Tenn. — For most people, social media is used pretty regularly in some form, and those that are interacting with Snapchat can expect some updated safety measures. “Snapchat is meant for talking to real friends, and we want to really make sure that they can do that in a safe and healthy way,” said Nona Yadegar, Director of Design at Snapchat.
