Automatically creating a shadow account for everyone on Instagram?

Even allowing people to follow that account?

Sounds like they really wanted to push Threads out the door in a big way.

    It’s true. As people who I follow on Instagram have started to sign up for Threads it has notified me that we’re following each other. There’s an option when you sign up to allow it to do that. And if you set up a private account, then you still have to approve people who follow you. But this way, you don’t have to worry about remembering to check if someone has signed up yet after you sign up.
