Honestly, trying to view Instagram content anonymously, especially Stories or private profiles, raises some serious ethical concerns. Maybe you should just respect their privacy? If users wanted to share content with you, they’d make it publicly accessible or approve your follow request. Using plugins or tools to bypass that trust not only violates their privacy but can also get you into trouble.

That said, if you’re looking for tools to reduce general tracking while browsing publicly accessible content, some plugins like uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, or HTTPS Everywhere can help reduce tracking but don’t guarantee anonymity. VPN extensions like Proton VPN or NordVPN can mask your IP, but again, these won’t let you view private Instagram content if the account is locked.

In the end, if someone wanted you to see their private or story content, they wouldn’t have a private account or restricted access in the first place. Respecting privacy is key.
