I was doing some work on the Mac, with a lazy eye on the tweetstream, when I saw a reference to this:

I wonder how they figure out whom to “follow”. Shades of Big Brother is Following You.
We live in interesting times.
Incidentally, my thanks to Gaspar Torriero for tweeting about it.

Appears they’ll automagically start following you when you decide to follow them. Sousveillance will cause surveillance?
