Hey,
I am scraping stories and posts of many IG accounts, using internal endpoints (and so bot accounts and ofc proxies). Currently I do about 2-3 requests per hour per account, but since Friedayabout 1400 of my 1700 story scraping accounts and 1450 of my 1700 post scraping accounts got blocked (Phone Number Verify Screen which means permanent block). Blocks came at the same time for both endpoints a scrape, so its something "overall API related" and came with status code response status code 302.
Everything ran stable the last weeks and I did not do any changes.
Some "configuration/details:
Does anybody experience similar problems or do you have any suggestions for me to avoid blocks?
