Twitter “Circles” is broken and gay exhibitionists are freaking out
flooding the website with nudes. But eight months later, online exhibitionists are facing a scary reality: all of their x-rated pics aren’t private after all.Eek!A few tech sites are covering the troubling development, which seems to be stem from “Circle” posts showing up in the annoying “For You” tab. (Remember when you weren’t bombarded with tweets from people you don’t follow?
Those were the days!)From TechCrunch: “Most often, it seems that Circle tweets are being surfaced in the For You timeline to users who follow the poster, but are not in their Circle.
Others have reported that their Circle tweets are reaching even further than those who follow them.”That’s frightening, never mind a huge breach of trust.
Twitter “Circles” are supposed to be akin to the “Close Friends” feature on Instagram and the “Private Story” option on Snapchat.
