Social media has shrunk the world into one single screen. There’s no doubt about how amazing the new technology is but the fact that it comes with its own pit holes can’t be denied.
There’s so much that people showcase on their feeds no matter what social media platform they are using but little do they know that the data is being stored and recorded.
Moreover, the posters are posting the posts for their circle and this technology is so advanced that you can’t restrict anyone from doing anything. Though you can restrict your settings. That restricted setting of yours can be compromised too if you have a stalker.
The word stalker is sometimes admired. Especially after watching YOU on Netflix but things can turn very wrong and serious too.
If the words above gave you chills, relax, I didn’t intend to do it. Stalking can also be something that you do when you see a friend without them knowing, or when you are going through the profile of a random crush.
Twitter, like every other social media platform, is used by many people but its audience is very different and quite specific. When you are going through someone’s profile, it’s only you and the algorithm of Twitter that know what’s happening.
People often have so many questions for Twitter and today I’ll try to do my best to answer most of them. Keep on reading to learn more.
