Twitter has introduced “Activity” – a feature that does the following:
New! Activity
View favorites, follows, retweets and more by people you follow in Activity.
View your mentions, tweets that were retweeted and more in @.
In other words, you can see what those that you follow are doing and vice versa: they can view yours!
There is no way to turn the feature off. Is Twitter going the way of Facebook with regards to privacy?
Where is this feature at?
How would it violate privacy none of this stuff is private. Outside of private messages and private accounts you can read anything anyone has out there. It might take a little longer but I think the real key is that if people don’t want the public having access to something, don’t make it public.
Tia – Not all accounts have the feature currently. It’s been rolled out, however.
RH – There are various levels of privacy: e.g. seeing what you favorited or whom you just added on twitter is parts of the privacy that exists no more.
Ok I see what you mean.
