The internet is quite a strange place if you think about it. Depending on how one chooses to employ its features, it can help anyone either hide from the world or go viral. However, if you take will out of the equation, the internet does make you quite vulnerable by default as well. Think about every site and app where you enter your phone number, name, email address, age, address, and other sensitive information. Sure, it should be relatively safe since it is all confidential, but can we depend on what should or should not be?
Suppose someone with strong willpower and an intention to hurt you can hypothetically get all that personal data. In contrast, if you were to live like a farmer in the 1800s, there’s literally no way such a thing would even be a distant possibility.
Today’s blog will discuss whether someone who blocked you on Instagram still sees your story.
Can Someone Who Blocked Me See My Instagram Story?
If you’re a regular Instagram user, you must’ve known about the blocking feature for some time now. If someone blocks you on Instagram, they cannot see your story anymore. In fact, your whole profile will disappear from their view.
So, if you’re worried about one of your friends who have temporarily blocked you popping up and seeing your story, rest assured. Not only will such a thing be unjustifiable, but it also makes no sense that someone who has blocked you wants to see your story.
Instagram is even more strict in this regard. Not only will that person not be able to see your story, but you’ll practically be invisible to them on the platform. The only place they’ll be able to see you is their Blocked accounts list, and even then, they’ll only see your username until they unblock you.
So, Instagram hasn’t left any loopholes that might let any user raise fingers on its privacy. Even if you’re the one who got blocked, you have just as much of a right not to want such people to see your activity.
Now, let’s move on to how you can block someone if you ever land in a situation where you have to.
Here’s how to block someone on Instagram
Step 1: Open Instagram and go to the Explore tab.
Step 2: Tap on the Instagram search bar at the top and enter the username of the user you wish to block.
Step 3: Select their account from the results and visit their profile. Tap the three dots icon at the top right.
Step 4: On the next pop-up menu, tap on Block.
