Last night I went on my Twitter for the first time in ages only to find my account had switched from private to public without me knowing. I am furious. I post pics of my child on there and have also talked about my abuser on there. Not to mention everything I share is in the context of it being PRIVATE to my handful of online friends who use it. I am deleting the account today but I have no idea how long it was just sitting there open and who may have seen what.

We really need something like GDPR down here. Shit like that should cost a company.

I know right. I feel so helpless about it… it’s seriously wrong but there will be no consequences.
