Hello, any help or advice I could receive on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
I wrote some code for an Instagram mother/slave method that works good enough, the only problem is that I have to thread a large number of bots to achieve the volume my clients need. After the 5th or so bot, Instagram begins to ban the accounts as it senses that there are too many requests coming from the same IP address. I am using Proton VPN, however this does not seem to be helping too much. Here are my options for Selenium that I have so far:
option = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
option.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])
option.add_experimental_option('useAutomationExtension', False)
option.add_argument("window-size=1280,800")
option.add_argument("disableWebSecurity")
option.add_argument("noProxyServer")
option.add_argument("user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/74.0.3729.169 Safari/537.36")
My bot will go to each lead in it's designated slots on an excel sheet and follow, like their posts, and message them promoting the clients page. The bot is currently set to start at 10 threads, however the banning still occurs when only 5 threads are running. The bot has been able to run through over 500 leads if just a single thread is running without getting banned.
Is there an option that I don't know about, do I have to buy proxies and find a way to designate a bot to each proxy, or is there a whole other way about going through Mother/Slave method that won't raise as much suspicion from Instagram?
Once again thanks for any help
