Im not sure why this person would expect to see the content while logged out. Shrug.
Its part of a social network, if everyone was lurking it would just be a bunch of creepers. The product shows who viewed a post/story/reel etc and can't do that if you arent logged in.
- dheera 5y agoIf so they should not even show the page to begin with. I'd be fine with that. (It's an intentionally public page about cat pictures, by the way, so it wouldn't be creepy for anonymous internet users to look at. It's only private Instagram pages that would be creepy in that sense.) Letting you browse public content for 5 seconds before asking you log in is a "fuck you" pattern.
- tbrock 5y agoThats just advertising! I dont work at facebook but i also wasnt born yesterday. Give people a taste so they want to sign up. That doesn't make them evil any more than a movie trailer makes hollywood evil.
