Development preview — not released

Review Private Accounts You Follow

Planned workflow: Select confirmed private accounts from your Following, review exclusions, and run a controlled task. Unknown privacy data is not treated as private.

How would a private-account Unfollow rule work?

It selects accounts with an observed private attribute and a confirmed current Following relationship, subject to protected lists. An unreadable attribute is Unknown, not private. The live rule remains unreleased.

Confirm account privacy

Private-only Unfollow requires the privacy attribute to be known true and the person to be currently followed. An unreadable privacy field is not a match.

Resolve conflicting filters

Private Accounts conflicts with Public-only and Skip private accounts. Correct the configuration before preview; incompatible filters must never be silently discarded.

Preview protected accounts

An Unfollow whitelist still protects a private account. The preview should explain the exclusion rather than hiding protected people from the source population.

Run with clear limits

Choose a reviewable task maximum and daily cap. Privacy status is a selection criterion, not a guarantee of platform permission or reliable execution.
