If you create an account just to read other people's content, how would anyone else know of your account in order to impersonate it?


I find that a lot of local bodies - eg the local council, the Police, only have uptothe minute status info on Twitter, not their own website ... and have their Twitter feeds bookmarked for that reason. It's not good that one now has to login to read it though. As I have a separate email address & password for every site I use I don't see much risk.
