TwitterCircle Tweets Visible To The Public Thanks To Bug
, a feature that lets you designate close friends among people you follow, and lets them see more private posts you make on the platform. Though recently, it appears that a bug on the bird app has made it so that these supposedly private posts for your inner circle are not so private after all. Said bug has resulted in some Twitter Circle posts appearing in the For You tab of complete strangers.
As TechCrunch reports, there is a mix of these supposedly private posts appearing on the timelines of both those who follow you and complete strangers alike. As Theo Browne, a former engineer at the bird app, explains, “Twitter seems to be outright failing to filter out private content before serving it to users”. He was also able to prove the working hypothesis by having a post designated as one for his Twitter Circle not only being seen, but also liked, by someone who he doesn’t follow.
