I won’t know. It took me a few hours but I have unfollowed everyone that I was following on Xitter. My account is now a shell. I will get on every few weeks just to make sure it is alive and block anyone contacting it.
I never followed anyone, so my acct is just there. I check it every now and then to see what has changed.
