How to change privacy settings on Twitter. You can change your Twitter privacy settings if you’re more concerned about your privacy.
Twitter is an online and social networking platform where users post and interact with messages known as “tweets”. You can tweet your opinions on everything from important to boring issues as a part of the global Twitter community. All tweets are public by default, which means that anybody with a Twitter handle can see what you tweet.
If you want full privacy, you can change your Twitter settings so that only those who follow you can see what you tweet. You have full control over who can see your tweets because you get to personally approve followers.
Note: If you enable protected tweets, you must approve all new followers before they can follow you and read your tweets.
