I've been getting negative feedback from some people because I decided to follow them, some even calling me a "stalker". I follow all sorts, people I like their opinions and people who seem generally argumentative towards me also. So I resented that accusation, but then again given who was saying it perhaps its understandable.

Never thought people would consider such a thing an issue? I mean the like button I can understand how sinister and disruptive it is, but I never stopped to even consider the follow button for a minute.

Should we campaign to remove this button also? I genuinely thought it was harmless but some posters seem concerned.

What is your next campaign?

Get rid of the post button?

Actually that might not be such a bad idea.

I am all in favour of the follow button, I personally dont see the issue with it.

But if others do it at least deserves discussion. Several have already said on this thread alone they find it concerning.

The like button on the other hand I am definitely against as I have said numerous times.

They’re only against the follow button when YOU use it you relentless dullard. Who wants to have a creep like you following them round the internet?

Incorrect, the people on this thread that have voiced concern I am not nor ever followed.

Just tidy up who you follow and who follows you.
