Honestly, maybe the best “best practice” is to reconsider whether you should be using these anonymous viewers in the first place. If someone has chosen to make their Instagram content private or doesn’t want you to see their stories, that’s their decision—and bypassing it isn’t respecting their privacy. Even public content isn’t necessarily free for the world to snoop around anonymously.

If you’re worried about data leakage and security risks, the safest thing is not to use these tools at all. Many of them are shady, harvest data themselves, or even scam users. Even when they promise anonymity, there’s no guarantee your information or browsing habits aren’t being tracked.

So, the real “safe” move? Respect other people’s boundaries and privacy, and don’t use anonymous viewers. If you wouldn’t want someone secretly watching your stories without your knowledge, maybe don’t do it to them.
