Really @Jordan S, out of all the things to Zap you Zap this? Being able to see who other people follow is how I was able to build my account (and I’m not alone here). That’s successful social media 101.

Ok, and it's because Vitor builds a good client that I personally use, and enjoy. I think it's a good client, and allowing people to have secret follows would be a good feature.
