Have you even attempted to scrape Instagram? You're just throwing hypotheticals at me, but the reality is different if you even attempted to do it.

I'm pretty sure because I scraped a lot of stuff, maybe not Instagram but I don't see how it's any different. Reality of protocols is quite stable, and as long as you can send HTTP requests to Instagram servers and get documents back, you can find a way to scale it.

Again, do it first, then talk. Everything you're saying is pure theory, which holds no substance here. Do it, then talk.
