TweetEffect is showing my protected updates to the world! How dare you?
TweetEffect is not making your protected updates available to the world – this is a misconception as you are logged into the Twitter API when you use it. Protected users can test that your updates are still safe by logging out of twitter and then trying TweetEffect. You will see an error message that your data is not available and *not* your updates – this is what the world sees, too. As a general rule it is a bad plan to stay logged in – maybe an Air client like Twhirl or Snitter might be a better solution for you as you don’t want your data to be available to the world.
