    Default Instagram privacy problem

    Sorry if this is the wrong section -

    So I have my personal instagram which I have NOT allowed to post to my Facebook. Last night I made a new additional instagram with a fake name and different email associated with it because I don't want anyone I know coming across my second instagram. I still put in my same phone number but it told me that would be kept private. Today I noticed that on my new instagram I'm seeing all these suggestions to follow people that I went to high school with that I'm friends with on fb. I haven't even followed or been followed on my new page yet. I then went on fb and disabled fb to suggest my app I use to others, but I'm still seeing the same suggestions of people I know on my new account. I'm sure if I'm seeing their suggestions they are also seeing my page as a suggestion right?

    I thought I took preventative measures but for some reason it still seems like signing up with new email, new name etc didn't make me invisible to the dreaded friend suggestions.

    Any additional tips I can do?

    I think because it's associated with your phone number, it's taking the info from your contacts list... but I could be wrong. I saw a camgirl on youtube talking about this. She advised deleting those contacts or getting a new phone if you want to do Instagram.

    Update, apparently it just took some time to activate the change i made with disabling the app syncing. Now it's not showing suggestions for people I know, just celebrities now so I guess it worked.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to have a personal and work instagram, using the same iphone, with phone number NOT linked (I signed up on the computer) yet log in to both accounts at different times... and not run into privacy issues?

    ^^^^i personally wouldn't because you are on the same device (the iPhone) and the same IP address. So the site will know it's you.

    There may be a workaround but err on the side of caution and just not do it

    Actually,limecoconut, that only works if you use an VPN on your i-phone and do not use your phone number to sign up at instagram.

    I use NordVPN for my computer and my mobile, but i do pay a fair bit for it. Usually the best VPN's are paid, but you would have to do some research on the free and paid ones to see what suits you best. It really depends what you want it for.

    Use the site below to read about how VPN's work and what companies generally fair better than than others. I used this site to teach myself the basics of online security and VPN's and its pretty great as its non-biased and not-for-profit. It takes a bit of reading, but hey you gotta figure it out by researching bits and pieces online.




    Hope that helps!

    These social media use your email lists;it's too easy to make a stupid mistake and reveal info. To do this successfully you need a separate bootable hard drive; disconnect the original one when you use the clandestine one. These both could be external drives. Even better would be a separate IP address, even if it means a separate computer and internet service provider. Really though, you should consult with a network guru, not me.
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    I've got an android and I have an app that allows me to have a completely separate profile on the same phone. It's meant for keeping work and personal accounts & contacts separate and private. I have a separate log in, email, twitter etc. You may want to search for apps that allow you to have a secure business profile on your phone. That way you don't have to worry about your contacts crossing.

    I use that similar app too on my phone. It's a parallel app that makes copies etc....well it worked for snapchat, I use IG on its own and turned off syncing, but the copy cat FB app with the parallel app STILL shows my cam profile people I might know and they are all friends of my personal page....smfh hate FB privacy and search settings. Unless I missed something?

    How many of you get by not using FB at all for ur cam persona?

    I don't have one for cam right now, actually for the whole time I have worked online. I don't need to.
