In Instagram, you can view stories and posts of closed accounts
Imagine that you have closed access to your profile and continue to upload posts and stories calmly. At the same time, you think that only your subscribers have access to them.
But it turns out that anyone, not even an authorized user, can see your publications simply by the corresponding URL.
The bug is related to the caching of media files on the company’s servers, as well as the web version of the service. To play, just follow these steps:
1. Log in to the website Instagram from a non-blocked account with the target user.
2. Call window “Developer Tools” by pressing F12.
3. Go to the tab “Network”.
4. In the list of content types, select “Img”(photos) or “ Media”.
5. Open a story or post on the target account.
6. The media file you are viewing will appear at the bottom left. Click on it.
7. On the right in the tab “Headers” copy the URL from the item “ Request URL”.
After that, send the URL to the blocked person on the target account. He doesn’t even need to log in. Just open the link and view the content.
