## Description

Instagram Viewer & Blocker lets you look up any Instagram profile and block any account directly from your browser — including accounts that have blocked you first.

Profile Info shows:
<ul><li>Profile picture, full name, username</li><li>Bio and external link</li><li>Follower, following, and post counts</li><li>Private and verified badges</li></ul>
Blocking works even when:
<ul><li>The target has blocked you</li><li>You can’t visit their profile normally</li></ul>
All requests go directly to Instagram using your existing session. No data is collected, stored, or sent to any third-party server.
