<p dir="auto">This issue was about modifying "friends" functionality and changing it to the "follow". As tomhughes mentioned:</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">... the facebook model that requires agreement and the twitter model which doesn't.<br>
...<br>
We chose to go with the second model.</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">And as Fizzie41 mentioned:</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">In that case, no, it's probably nothing to be concerned about then.<br>
Although "follow", rather than "friend" is a good idea!</p>
