I think it would then delete any account in both Instagram and Threads.
But there's no need to do that. If you already have Instagram and your happy with it, there's nothing extra you need to worry about just because there's a shadow account pre set up for you in Threads.
It's a shady way for them to push their new service, but it's not like they suddenly have any more info on you than they already had.
Eh, I already have a love/hate relationship with IG. If I cared more about internet privacy, I wouldn't have a smart phone or any online accounts.
I only use instagram 1 day per year, it’s usually in July. Today was that day for using instantghram and I uploaded 4 vacation photos. My iPhone battery dropped like a rock afterwards and even plugged into a 2.1 amp tablet charger and it could barely make headway recharging my phone. I may cut loose my threads, now.
