Geoblocking Proxy

If you want to access Instagram data, consider using the Instagram Graph API. However, note that the Graph API has limitations and may not provide access to all public content.

Here is an example using Python and the instagram_private_api library

from instagram_private_api import Client, ClientCompatPatch

# Replace 'your_username' and 'your_password' with your Instagram credentials
username = 'your_username'
password = 'your_password'

api = Client(username, password)
results = api.user_feed('instagram', count=10)  # Replace 'instagram' with the target account username

for post in results['items']:
    media_id = post['id']
    comments = api.media_n_comments(media_id, count=5)  # Replace 5 with the desired number of comments to retrieve
    for comment in comments['comments']:
        print(comment['user']['username'] + ': ' + comment['text'])

api.logout()

The term "public" should be understood to mean open proxy servers. That is, they can be used by all users without exception. They can be insecure and are often quite overloaded, so the connection speed or response time when using public proxies can be very slow.

To check if your computer uses a proxy-server, you just need to use any browser (Yandex Browser, Opera, Google Chrome). Then you need to follow the algorithm:

Start your browser.
Go to "Settings".
In the search box enter the query "proxy".
Click on "Proxy settings".
In the tab that opens, select "Network settings".
This will open a tab with the IP address and port of the proxy server, if it is used. If the function is disabled, the line will be empty, and the option itself is disabled.

To connect your iPhone to a proxy server, follow these steps:

Open the "Settings" section. Go to the "Wi-Fi" tab. Next to your access point, click on "i". Click on "Proxy settings". Use the manual setting and specify the proxy data. To specify the proxy username and password you need to enable the "Authentication" option. Save your settings.

"Work via VPN" means to connect to a site, an application or a remote server via a VPN server. That is, through an "intermediary" that not only hides the real IP address, but also additionally encrypts the traffic so that it cannot be "read".
