Did you try logging in to see if you have to reset your password or clearing cookies with -C ?

This happens to me whenever I try any email or phone scrape. I ve tried multiple computers with different linnux distros, from different IP addresses (I tried on my home network, my neighbors network, public wifi etc...)

same result as you instagram_private_api.errors.ClientError

kicked off after 5 minutes scraping emails or phones.

It will connect to the account and cache the emails, but then kicks me off right after
