    If you use your public tweets like a private diary you’re going to have a bad time. If this hypothetical person is ashamed of their deviant sex behaviors, don’t use Twitter.

    Hell the privacy minded even say an incognito browser is still not very private.

    But to claim your Twitter history is private is a bit of a stretch.

    That said I don’t use Twitter so do people use it like a diary?

      the shocking things isn’t so much that it’s not private per se: we expect twitter to see everything we do and “personalise our experience”… we don’t expect arbitrary people to be able to

        Anytime you see one of those vast Twitter connection charts between disinformation accounts that make you think of this guy

        well, that’s one way how they make them.

      Well it’s not a matter of just this guy, but also normal people who aren’t criminals, extremists, or politicians. While still awful, it’s one thing to use that info for profit by giving other companies access to it. It’s another thing to make it accessible to just about anyone.

      No point asking me, I never use Twitter either.

        If you were really “security minded,” you wouldn’t be on the fucking internet.
