How can I politely and legally view a private Instagram account's posts? Should I send a follow request, ask mutual friends, or message the owner—what's the best respectful approach and pitfalls?

If you want to view a private Instagram account respectfully, send a clear follow request stating who you are and why you want access. Respect their choice if they decline. Asking mutual friends to introduce you or confirm your identity is acceptable, but never create fake accounts or impersonate someone - that breaks trust and violates platform rules. Direct, polite messaging often works. For community discussions, see site. Be patient and privacy-minded.
