Instagram is now blocking web access to force consent as well. Here is how to get around giving consent:
Instagram redirects to a URL like this: [https://www.instagram.com/consent/?flow=ad_free_subscription&params_json=](https://www.instagram.com/consent/?flow=ad_free_subscription¶ms_json=)...
Change ad_free_subscription to anything, like ad_free_subscription1, hit enter.
Instagram then will show an error, but you can then navigate anywhere from there.
