The only way to overcome it is to change your IP or use a good proxy (good bcz, many nonresidential proxies get you blocked by Instagram).

if your ISP doesn't give you a static IP then disconnecting & re-connecting (toggling airplane/flight mode) will change the IP. Also don't hit the API too frequently, sources says that it has limit of 200 requests per hour.

PS: Setting proxy is not currently supported by the library, you need to proxy at system level
