BBC News - 'Twitter messages not private' rules PCC

 

I'm surprised it needed a ruling for what was pretty obvious!

hmm duh!!! if she wanted her tweets only to be seen by her followers then she should use the private settings.

In other news, information broadcast to the world via the internet is public...

"She complained that this information was private and was only meant to be seen by her 700 followers"

 

 

700 != "private"

A keything here was in ruling that as could be RT then not private so while would need to be tested you could have it as a private feed and still could be published..
