....I don't use it, in fact I used it only once and it didn't work - so don't ever log on.

I viewed my stepson's twitter account yesterday and he has overnight gone private. I and my husband are now worried in case he went private because I looked at it.

As I wasn't logged onto my account, and as I no longer use my account - I merely just typed in his name and it came up - can he see that it was me that viewed his profile at all?

Please can you put my mind at rest, as I am now worrying that he noticed "a stranger" or indeed my profile from yonks ago looking at his profile and has gone private because of this.

BTW there was no malice in me looking, I was merely trying to find something out regarding Christmas presents ideas and thought about looking at twitter, so we know what to get his aunt is all....
Wishing I hadn't bothered now as I'm fretting...

Things I know nothing about I should just leave well alone...!

Thanks in advance.

i have no idea - did you log into your twitter account to look at his? It can't just have been once, or you wouldn't know he's since set it to private
ps even if he has gone privare because you looked, so what? he is just telling you (without actually telling you) he doesn't want you looking at his twitter and as presumably you don't want to look at his twitter account any more, no problem your end that you can't. i also don't really get how looking at someones twitter acount willhelp solve the mystery of what his aunt might like for xmas. Why can't you just ask his aunt what she might like?
He will have no idea who looks at his Twitter account.

My husband gave me the idea that he was chatting to friends about Christmas present ideas online, and we wanted to surprise his aunt without mentioning anything to anyone. I thought I would have a look. Anyway the reasons I was looking at it is completely irrelevant.
I wasn't logged into twitter at the time, so could've been anybody I guess. This is what I want to hear, so no harm done.
I don't want him to think I checked his twitter is all - again no harm done, just don't want him to know I had gone quite to these lengths in my quest for a surprise present idea!

Annnnnndddd....I'm sure I'm not the only person in history to have asked the question!!!!!!!!

I came out and went back in as my laptop crashed - so no not once, but technically once - yes!
No. Nobody can tell if you've viewed there postings on Twitter.
Nobody knows who viewed it. They'd only know if you were logged in and clicked to 'follow' him. Maybe it's just coincidence and he's got a 'friend' he would like to keep secret for the time being. Depends how old he is, if he's still effectively a child, he may be being bullied. Don't wish to worry you though.
