Instagram has just made your stalking so much easier and THANK YOU

Go ahead and lurk. - by Bianca Mastroianni
  • 15 Jun 2018

Ever screenshot someone's Instagram story, and then absolutely DIED because you remembered they get a notification for it?

Same.

But while sitting with my friend on the weekend, casually stalking people we mutually don't like... we decided to test if the app still has that feature.

bulldog on Twitter

TURNS OUT Instagram is a fan of letting us lurk in peace, and because of that, they've removed the notification feature on screenshots.

Instagram has told BuzzFeed News that they have removed the feature completely, and nobody at all will be notified anymore.

YES.

So my pretties, go on and screenshot 'til your heart is content.
