Anonymity on the web. What identification data does the site I visit receive about me?

It turned out that after viewing 500 pages of Instagram users, I caught a ban - now when accessing the user's page, he issues a 301 redirect to the "login or register" page for any device connected to my wi-fi.

I do:
- Use a proxy
- Use the Tor browser with the "Highest" security level
- Reset the browser to factory settings
- Change the MAC addresses of the router

All of these actions do not reset the karma.

Does this mean that my router secretly gives the site some data, perhaps a hidden device id, stitched into it at the factory or something else. Perhaps my ISP is attaching data to my requests that allows me to be identified, even if I use vpn.

What else needs to be done so that Instagram cannot identify me?

I just opened any instagram and scroll through, I see everything, but when I click on a video or a picture, a window pops up that needs to be glossy.
1. I opened the f12 chrome console
Then I found an element in the code and set opacity 0 so that the screen dimming and pop-up would not be visible, I can scroll further the whole page...

All of these actions do not lead to the nullification of karma.

And they won't - because not a single action changes the main thing - a set of browser characteristics. There are a zillion ways to identify a user coming from different IPs, from a banal super-cookie to a browser fingerprint.
Usually in such cases, they do the following:
- generate several virtual machines in each of which are different browsers and save start snapshots
- use one virtual machine and start from the start snapshot every time it is loaded (for a guarantee, you can change something - for example, put some software, add fonts, change console resolution)
- if you get banned, take another virtual machine
... and so on...

Does this mean that my router secretly gives the site some data

Of course not. The data itself is not magically returned - it must be requested. If you have access from the world to the router is open - it certainly gives the data, but not some, but completely certain.
Perhaps my ISP is attaching data to my requests that allows me to be identified, even if I use vpn.

And who are you - Her Majesty the Queen's agent James Bond 007? There is nothing more for the provider to do, how to deal with such nonsense ...
