3 years ago Instagram has some internal tools that detect spam or automated actions. If they detect them, they can temporarily block your actions.
The ban can be limited to a device or even a function and this explains your case. Rates depend on each account.
I don't know of any solutions except to have a less automated behavior. Nobody IRL unfollows 500 peoples over a few hours ;)

Hey guys I wrote a little script which unfollows a person every 70 to 100 Seconds. It did very well also when I have unfollowed 500 people over a few hours. Now I get this error when I try to start the script again. I probably have overused it, at least what I can see:
(node:3332) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: StatusCodeError: 400 - {"message":"feedback_required","spam":true,"feedback_title":"Try Again Later","feedback_m st.js:1154:10) at Request.emit (events.js:315:20) at IncomingMessage. (J:\Projekte\instabot\node_modules\request\request.js:1076:12)

(node:3332) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). To terminate the node process on unhandled promise rejection, use the CLI flag

In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.Interesting is that when I start another script - to get my followers and followings - which uses the same Instagram Account no problems occur. So can anyone please explain to me what exactly went wrong and even more important how I can fix this.
P.S. I hope this post is okay :)
Edit: When I use Instagram with the same Account on my Mobile or in the browser unfollowing is still able
