While many of us cherish the ability to keeping a low online profile, the introduction of Instagram Story viewing in recent times changed the landscape of what it means to be seen by the masses online. The countless stories each day filled with every last detail of everyone else's lives made it a haven for those people who loved peeking into others' lives. Nonetheless, taking away our power to do this from other people, for instance through setting the Instagram Stories viewer to locked, brings about the question of what benefits an anonymous Instagram Story viewing could bring to the community.
Some might argue that the most significant benefit of anonymous story viewer viewing in the Instagram world would be giving users back an opportunity to be more authentic. Without the fear of people judging their stories based on what they see, users would have the freedom to be more spontaneous.
Benvenuto!
